Daniel Hesidence describes his work as a process of decoding consciousness. Working from a memory bank of visual information his practice is based on an intuitive negotiation of imagination through tangible media, narrating the sluices of thought through spontaneous and unmediated painterly response. Often working on several canvases simultaneously, each image feeds into and progresses from a continuous dialogue. In Untitled, the form of a horse dissipates into a torrential abstracted field. Painted with restrained energy, raw emotions of power and sexuality are tempered through Hesidence's romantic palette and sybaritic brushwork. Rendered in monumental scale, Untitled is arresting in its passive grandeur; its dramatic climax is emitted with an unsettling elegance and rarefied potency.

Daniel Hesidence's most recent body of work. Shifting from the lyrical eclecticism of his FARM and Post FARM paintings, 1 7 3 6 is forceful in its visual intensity. Mimicking the flickering seduction of fire, Hesidence presents an entanglement of colour that dances across the canvas with effulgent brilliance. Punctuating deep greens and cool violets with radiant white highlights, Hesidence's 1736 conveys both a spectral luminosity and sculptural depth. Giving physical form to ethereal sentiment, Hesidence's impassioned gestures and gaseous hues transpire as a consuming field of meditative fixation.

Daniel Hesidence's canvases ebb towards the transcendental. In negotiating visual articulation Hesidence reconvenes with an elusive and long-forgotten collective experience. In Untitled, Hesidence's grid-like composition dissembles with chaotic uncertainty as tranquil hues of opposing colour converge with awkward grace. Hesidence's paintings possess a synaesthetic quality: their visual surfaces conjure sensual associations of sound, touch, motion and scent. Describing the totality of perceptual experience through paint, Hesidence's work strives to evoke a deeper lever of shared consciousness.
