My latest work is A Blind Trilogy. It is an architectural installation piece which consists of three free standing panels. Each panel is two metres high and half a metre wide. There are three highly intricate coloured squares on each of the panels.

Each panel represents a stage during my first weeks of blindness. Each square within each panel shows an emotion that I was encountering at that time. The colours that I have used in this work are representative of my emotions. The script which has been included in the form of Braille lenses is intended to work on two levels. For the sighted it acts as a reinforcement of my story and for the blind it allows them to physically interact with the work.

I have never been a supporter of installation work that was accompanied by what often appeared to be a complex and often difficult to understand amount of intellectual art speak. However I feel confident that my own work is not beyond the reach of the general public. They may not fully appreciate that as a blind artist I need to work in a structured and logical way and therefore have constructed my work of squares and boxes which are contained themselves within larger squares and boxes. I am sure that my constructive use of colour will be understood universally. To see the Trilogy in full quality, please click photo gallery in the menu.
