Artwork description

This Painting it is about KARMA HOPE FATE CHANCE LUCK DESTINY EXISTENTIALISM SURREALISM, in this time of the post Covid pandemic. ‘Tears of a Midnight Clown’ is a product of my response to being locked down due to Covid 19. it deals with my thoughts and emotions about the themes of Karma Fate etc as well as Expressionism, Surrealism and Existentialism. It is said there is nothing more scary than a Clown at Midnight. In the painting the Clowns tears contain a Magpie … one for sorrow two for joy etc, an allegorical meaning regarding the interplay of Hope, Luck, Chance. and Fate etc in the dark landscape of our dreams and imagination and the way they interplay with our existentiality. This painting was selected for the Outside In Major National Open Exhibition, ‘Humanity’ and was exhibited at Sotheby’s in London 9–27 January 2023 before heading to Project Ability in Glasgow in the summer and then Brighton and Hove Museums in winter 2023
