A few places around the world including Baltimore shows the changes in cities or towns. I have included some examples,
re: Las Cruces,New Mexico, London, Baltimore and some parts of France which have remained as tranquil and serene as before without the
redevelopment that we see around.  Some of the work is not recent . It is important to show works that have evolved over the years.

    Canary Wharf,London, is one of the most important commerce centres in the world. The verticality of the image relates to the skyscrapers in the area.

    Although this earlier work is showed in its natural landscape this work has been recently exhibited in a different space (gallery setting) The landscape in the part of France has remained unchanged. A refreshing sight in comparison to other parts of the world i.e. Las Cruces, New Mexico, where the recent development has given rise to new buildings, homes etc. A place where one could walk in the desert and experience the beautiful landscape.

    The Road to Nogent, France and the landscape remains the same unspoilt with redevelopment etc that you see in some parts of the world. The serene landscape and tranquility is striking and I spent many hrs in the mid 2000s experiencing the landscape spiritually and emotionally. Several visits were made to this site after years later. The work is stitched and painted using the landscape as the focus of the piece. Dimensions: 35ft long,12"high.
