'In 1999 I received a Sir William Gillies Award from the Academy to visit the Printmaking Center in Santa Fe, New Mexico. The work in question was inspired by a visit to the "Palace of the Governors". One of the exhibits was a door that had been removed from one of the old houses in Santa Fe, that had seen and been part of the history of the Wild West. This door carried much information in terms of the scars of war; bullet holes, metal furniture; staples; repairs; and had this wonderful presence of something that had physical changes made to it over the years, and had become an object of some significance', Lennox Dunbar, 2006.
