Gill Rocca’s recent work explores ideas of liminal spaces, thresholds between the mundane and the extraordinary. The landscapes draw upon invention as much as observation to present an ambiguous and elusive sense of reality at a point of transformation, often where the familiar is rendered strangely unfamiliar. These illusionary scenes, the familiar anonymity of woodland, still lakes, deserted roads, short-cuts and paths through, once entered, attempt to assimilate themselves into the viewer’s own memories of places both real and imagined.
