Anomaly of Feelings begins from a simple observation: that beauty can come from any emotion at all. Joy and calm, longing and unease, tenderness and grief. In these paintings, the whole range is treated as raw material, and none of it is turned away.

Brush, paint and canvas become the means of channelling what is felt. Each emotion arrives with its own colour, its own weight, its own pace, and each leaves a different mark on the work. The lighter feelings bring air and openness. The heavier ones bring depth, and what might be read as melancholy, the work treats as honesty. Set alongside one another on the canvas, they give the paintings a fuller register than any single mood could reach.

That is the quiet argument of these works. No feeling is more valuable than another, and none is without its purpose. Every emotion plays its part in bringing the work to life.
