This installation is both a deconstruction and a reconstruction of the scene depicted within the painting, The Flowers of the East found within an a second hand book. Using the book itself, other found objects, my old paintings and old wax candles, I have created a tableau in which the viewer is able to immerse themselves within the scene. While the various elements of the work relate specifically to different features within the painting, they are recreated in a way that abstracts them.
