URBAN MENU - 1999-2001

The series of paintings on the theme of food - Momo's, Urban Menu, Street People - was conceived as a relevant social commentary of the London at this present time.
The images of Londoners enjoying themselves at Momo's are tempered by the isolation often seen at fast food places. Then I tell the story of assembled individuals from the street with a hint of their humour along with the poignancy of their situation. These works each measure approximately 1200mm x 1200mm.
The seven paintings of Momo's (which can be joined together) each measure 1010mm high x 915mm wide. They are all oil and mixed media.
