The works were first show in the ‘Simulacra’ exhibition at Cambridge University’s Museum of Classical Archeology in 2023.
The Anemoi is a series of drawings that represent to Greek gods of the winds; gods such as Aeolus the storm god and Boreas the cold North wind. Each drawing is made up of straight lines and is therefore constructed by our visual system. This relates to notions of quantum physics and the notion that everything is made of smaller and smaller constituent parts.
Aeolus - The Greek storm god
Boreas - Greek god of the cold North wind
Zephyrus - Greek god of the west wind, the gentlest of the wind, light / spring
Notus - Greek god of the south wind, thought to bring the storms of late summer and early autumn
Eurus - a wind of storm, described as a turbulent wind during storms and tossing ships on the sea
Phorcys - God of the hidden dangers of the deep

Made during a period of reflection and experimentation, this drawing is the result of attempts to build form using straight lines as a lowest elemental denominator.
In Greek mythology, the 10 ‘Ourea’ were the mountains - the parthenogenetic progeny of Gaia (mother of the universe), and members of the Greek primordial deities, who were the first-born elemental gods and goddesses.
Around 700 BCE, the poet Hesiod wrote:
And [Gaia] brought forth long hills, graceful haunts
of the goddess Nymphs who dwell amongst the glands of the hills.
For me, they represent a natural presence as well as a mythological one; the mountain or Ourea that I have drawn here is a sanctuary away from the machinery of civilisation and a de-materialising, digitised society.
