the piece i have created for the show is entitled "SHINE FORTH"-It's a collage made from fragments of my late brother-in-laws [DOMINIC BOYSE photographer]nokia mobile phone - the title references a great painting done by the NEWYORK school abstract painter BARNET NEWMAN .It was entitled SHINING FORTH FOR GEORGE and was a painted homage to NEWMAN's much loved brother after he died.
