FICTIONAL ARTEFACTS
This series of works is inspired by ideas and phrases from various works of literature. The original idea for the series was inspired by the Borges story "Tlon, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius", in which artefacts from a fictional world begin to invade our 'real' world, slowing taking it over and erasing what was there before. These paintings can, in a sense, be seen as remnants of fictional worlds, not just those created by Borges in his story, but in whichever pieces of fiction or poetry resonate with me strongly for whatever reason
