The tension between knowledge and faith is central in Adam Boyd's work. Informed by an eclectic research; his work gives everyday objects; observed in domestic spaces; devotional status. One such example is the fire-hearth; which Boyd says has; tended to act as a locus for close-knit familialbehaviour.”Using the geometric shape of the fireplace to experiment withwatercolour; allows for the more abstract qualities to arise from familiar objects.
