The return to a homeland is often a contemplative one.

 

Drawing inspiration from my great grandfather's poetry, the journey explores the emotional bond between myself as an artist and my birthplace - Madeira Island

​

Raised in the island, before creating a new life in the UK, the natural landscape and strong connection with my family is revisited and reconstructed. 

​

Confident of opening up about my own vulnerability, this work allows me to communicate and share my feelings as visual poems - a love letter to the island.
