Large monochromatic works exploring the aesthetics of drawing through repetition, composition, scale and projection.
I am interested in capturing the beauty of the spontaneous and signatory elements of a drawn line or mark. I re-use and repeat the once spontaneous and use scale to engage the viewer in the physical process of drawing. Harmony and balance are achieved through considered composition and by the delicacy and sensitivity of graphite as a medium.
Collaborative multi-media performances have juxtaposed drawing with sound and structure to saturate the audience with audio/visual/structural possibilities, creating multi-layered chaos one moment and precise composition and aesthetic balance another. Through scale, tone, sound and projection, the aim of the performances has been to champion the spontaneous, the transitory and the impermanent, offering a sensory emersion that could result in harmonious resolution or in aesthetic and sonic obliteration.
