“The Cherry Blossoms are about beauty and life and death. They’re extreme.They’re decorative but taken from nature. A tree in full crazy blossom against a clear sky. It’s been so good to make them, to be completely lost in colour and in paint in my studio. They’re garish and messy and fragile and about me moving away from Minimalism and the idea of an imaginary mechanical painter and that’s so exciting for me.”

Our students explore nature in spring. We learnt from Damien Hirst workart “Cherry blossoms” collection, an explosion of colour.
