The Big Bang

One evening in 1998 my friend Matthew had a show in UE Square. He is an artist. I took some of his canvas and painted the nature of my soul - well the fiery bit - which when it emerges balances out my cavernous, tempestuous, gentle wateriness. I must have felt energised that day. This was the moment I remembered that deep in my bones I am a creator. Then I got spooked and slammed shut that box. For 25 years this painting has lived with me. Now it is time to let it go so I can move on, in deference to the wisdom of creative destruction.
