TL;DRAbstract

Since I wrote my proposal in Canada two years ago, there has been a focussing of my work in certain areas, while other concerns have assumed a lesser significance in the body of the work. I had anticipated this when writing the proposal, aware that I must allow a flexibility to accommodate the changes I thought would accompany my introduction to a new culture. What was to be a maJor concern during the course, and something that my work had been dealing with before I left Canada, was the notion of man as creator and destroyer in a decaying environment. However I found that I could not continue to work as I had in Canada, as it seemed my new environment called for a reassessment of my working process, and only after such a reassessment have I been able to return to this theme. What I have been dealing with significantly in my work is how, as an artist, I have responded to a new environment with its many dimensions. My work has dealt with my adaptation to a familiar yet unfamiliar culture
