Most rooms in a house tend to be either rectangular or square. Sometimes they can be as tall as their length and breadth making them a cube. Cubism has always fascinated me; the idea of seeing one object from different view points. How does one show all six sides of a cube simultaneously? In the painting "Afraid of the Dark" I've painted the inside of my rectangular room in such a way that the painting can be rotated - as though one is turning around to look at each wall straight on.
