STORY PAINTINGS

The human mind is always looking for a story, a narrative that joins disparate things together.

This series of paintings hint at a narrative that is open to interpretation.

Like all Jo Heckett’s painting they are meant to be experienced by the physical eye and body. They are layered with materials that play with the light such as iridescent and metallic paint, glitter, tissue paper, glaze, precious metals and stone. This means the art works change from moment to moment, imbued with aliveness and presence.
