I’ve little interest in the pristine object.
Or the “heroic” art gesture of originating all aspects of a work. I’m most intrigued by working with found materials and objects. Including digital.
The virtual has proportion, scale, perspective, colour, etc. But no gravity. This weightlessness allows for unrealistic makings, which further intrigues.
Improvisation and play are the generators of my work. Experimentation too, but less a scientific method repeatable way, more experimentation as in taking a line for a walk.
2 dimensionality doesn’t really exits for me. The most extreme of graphics – black forms on white BG, I read dimensionally. This is best exemplified by my “3d strokes (after motherwell)” work.
Colour also has depth, as demonstrated by Rothko.
The fundamentals pf physical structures are analogous to a chiropractic view of things – compression (skeleton) and tensile (muscles/tendons) forces combining together to align and move in defiance of gravity.
My “craft” is at the scale of architecture, not so much at the scale of furniture.
Since architecture school, it is the affects of time and the movement through space, that interests me. In this sense, I believe my works are more about choreography than plans.
The only true and unavoidable site for physical works is our skin. In order for this site to be an opportunity, one needs to shift from it being the site of self loathing to one of play and experimentation.
Every part of my work has significance, I just know little of what the significance is.
