‘Wool is my Bread’ is the artist’s visual documentation of Kendal over a period of 15 years. Recording the mundane, everyday life of a town that is well and truly lived in. The images range from almost abstract to ironic, to strangely comical, depicting images that are not immediately comprehensible, so the viewer is forced to stop, look and question.
Pannus Mihi Panis translates as Wool is my Bread, this is the town’s motto, referring to Kendal’s historic link to the wool trade. Trevor likes to think that the content of his images may at first appear to be somewhat ‘woolly’.
“This woolliness feeds my appetite to create. My creations satisfy this appetite, and so, in many respects, these have become my bread.”
