This year I've felt such a longing to travel and much of my work during lockdown was about entering new territory or longing to travel far away. This one, painted during the second lockdown, is about my longing to be somewhere quiet, to connect with nature. I've painted figures on and off over the years and recently they have appeared in the work possibly because of the troubled state of the world and that need for a figurative element in among the abstraction.
