Over a pale yellow ground, an intricately patterned topographical contour is peppered with multiple eyes, whose angles send the viewer off on a visual journey around the canvas. Black snake-like forms rise ominously from the bottom left.

Taylor sometimes describes his studio as a stomach: a swilling and churning dual sphere of production and consumption, where all that enters is incessantly gnawed, singed and regurgitated, and where his inner world of personal stories and fictional characters, develops. His paintings emerge over several years through a process of painting and re-working until the final iteration rises to the surface. Sometimes abstract, sometimes bearing reference to figures or forms, internalised fictions rise and external influence seeps in.

The painting is oil on linen and exhibits Taylors process of working in and out of the painted surface over the revisitings of many years. In some places the canvas weave is exposed as another texture amongst lacunae of paint.
