NOTE: The image is also used as being representative of a means of 'escape' - from something I find too mundane, temporarily unable to understand or usually, just somewhere I 'disappear to' and be creative !
The
gallery's name " CiCi" originates from early 1980s when it was my shop's name as well as a label for fashion garments made but when other work commitments became a priority, the shop (& its range of clothes) was forced to close. However in the 1990s, the
name was resurrected for use by an advertising agency & here I was able to enhanced artistic design and computer skills but in 2005, this also shut its doors. In 2013 (relocating to the south west, CiCi went back to its original roots, was given a make-over and became
CiCi Creations. In the past, the CiCi logo had used a variety of different colours and styles - many adapted purely for business purposes.
Now in this next phase, the colours are representative for the start of a creative journey ... one I personally wanted to begin
many years ago!
Here, background image (above) depicts my earliest memory of somewhere I found especially
inspirational and how I perceived the sights around me in West London at the time. (If you want to find out more about this, click here: post-war West London)
