Work - Bearing Witness

Bearing Witness Informed by my life and consulting room experiences, these paintings and drawings represent the shared unconscious dreaming and corresponding transformations in energy, emotion and thought that are a profound and essential part of bearing witness. ‘Bearing witness’ is an ordinary and ongoing human process. We all do it. We bear witness to our own lives; we bear witness to the lives of others; we need others to bear witness to our lives. Currently we are all bearing witness to a complex, multi-faceted and shifting global crisis.
