Lights stretch across the harbour at Mousehole, reflecting softly on the water and transforming the scene into something both recognisable and slightly altered. Set against the darkness of the night, the display becomes the focus, drawing attention through colour and repetition.
The painting captures a tradition people return to year after year, where a familiar place is seen differently, held briefly in light before returning to its quieter state.
A Hidden Layer
The painting also contains a subtle fluorescent detail. Invisible under normal lighting, the stars respond to ultraviolet light, creating an additional layer inspired by the way astronomy reveals details that often remain hidden from the naked eye.
