‘I was filled with awe when I began my residency
at Harrow School, and a sort of longing, which
often precedes a productive period. CRUSH
describes the process of crimping and crushing
the material to make the work and also is an
instruction to have a ‘muse’ which is a wonderful
driving force.’
'A romantic response to the idea of human longing
represented by a kiss. A symbol often expressed
in Art History, think Rodin and Klimt, here McAdam
Freud re-ignites this intimate moment to reveal
the capacity found within us all—to love.
