This series of paintings attempts to point up an aspect of our ethical experience of the world by mapping the human habit of obfuscating, re-describing or embellishing, the ‘brute reality’ of social experience; the qualities of say, violence, cruelty or menace, greed or power etc. Hence, the series title: It’s a Wallpaper World is to say, it’s a knowingly falsified world.
