My work is about resilience. As humans we have an astonishing ability to weather the storm. For me, Battersea Power Station represents this. While we have descended into a period of darkness the station has continued development. Amidst suffering, loss, anger and death, there are still those materialising their dreams and visions. Creativity lives on and love lives on. I have made drawings and prints of Battersea Power Station in honour of resilience. We are still here and we can weather the storm.
