‘Flow 5’
122cm x 122cm. 4mm Aluminium/Led’s/1.5mm drilling. 2020
This work continues the exploration into simplifying the artistic process of Drillwork and a focus on a minimalist approach with the aim of capturing the inherent natural beauty of light above and beyond shape or form intended by the artist. Using a small 1.5mm bit, movement and texture become paramount within the circle, the waves and ripples of the drilling process and the slight change of angle give the subtle yet strong variations in light, shade and movement observable by the viewer.
‘The Flowering Of Technology’
‘From Nothing To Something’
A new series for 2019, The slightest angling or movement of the drillbit will change the light which the viewer sees. Using this allows shading to be used to define something, form, variation or object. This trio of panels begin to follow a path ‘from nothing to something’
