The Last Fisherman
brings together two figures across a wide, open space beneath a pale sun or moon. A smaller figure stands near the horizon, while the foreground figure looks towards it from beside a heavily textured hessian structure.
While making the painting, I kept returning to ideas of migration, disappearing traditions and the gradual loss of particular ways of life. Rather than describing a specific place or event, the distance between the figures and the weathered surface hold something of that uncertainty—the feeling of looking towards what is leaving, or what may already have been lost.
