Artist's statement:

"The starting point for these images is a computer game. They are traced, redrawn and painted ready to be worked into a screenprint. The result is merely a back-drop much like a scene painter creates an image that may enhance a narrative. Because of this the work may be imbued with the viewers narrative, allowing it to become their own." - David McCracken.
