This exhibition is an exploration of Gibraltar's relationship with Brexit and the European Union and explores whether Gibraltar's place is inside or outside of the European Union as a result of the Brexit vote.
Inspired by the use of a grid in the 80s TV show The Joy of Painting by Bob Ross, the solid colour double grid on each of the images is a metaphor for the European Union.
Items that sit inside the grid recede into the background whereas items that sit in front of the grid jump into the foreground. This visual effect plays with the order of items in the fore, middle and background sometimes leading to distorted imagery.
