Poppies
I made this piece to mark the Centenary of the Great War. I wanted to commemorate the artists and poets who fought and were able to transform their experiences of the devastation into something moving and even beautiful. The words are from 'In Flanders Fields' by Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae. I faithfully copied his handwriting from the first draft that he wrote following the Battle of Ypres. He didn’t survive the war.
