Of Hope, Bereft

By Luke Hickey – View Artist’s Profile

This is a scene I often see, I usually pass either on the bus or going for a walk. In the right mid-ground behind the white wall stands a lone house. Out of view to the left is a new estate, and beyond the shroud of green would be an even newer two houses that I’ve intentionally not added. I use the lone house to represent rural loneliness, isolation as well as the impact of loneliness and isolation on those who suffer from mental health issues.
