“In real life a person can really only go down one path but the imagination can venture down all possible paths.”
A particular area of the South Downs in Sussex inspires Deborah’s paintings which relate to her walks and reflect her pattern of thinking. The reference to maps help her to ‘assemble’ a landscape but in a way which does not exclude the immediacy of perceived moments.
When she thinks of a walk she has made, she also locates it in her mind on a map.
Deborah sees maps, paths and symbols as a metaphor for her journey in life and colour is used in an expressive way to emphasise life as a celebration.
