The images below show work in the studio from May to September 2020. I have compiled this as a chronological visual essay which starts in my home studio, shows my rented studio, the outside studio I built at home and progressed to the postgraduate studio at UH Creative School. My studio practice and experimentation wasContinue reading “Studio Research Practice Two May to September 2020”

Lines and Cells 2020 Part Two
I have waited six months to return to the installation I started during Practice One and Semester B. I turned the work into maquettes to develop the project during lockdown. I had the opportunity to return to this work on a larger scale on September 23rd and wasted no time in realising some of theContinue reading “Lines and Cells 2020 Part Two”
Lines and Cells 2020 Part One
This first video shows the piece finally installed in the postgraduate studios in late September 2020. This is still a work in progress and the experimentation with pulling the shapes from the drawings is ongoing. I have started with making aluminium wire follow the lines and hanging these from fishing wire along the top ofContinue reading “Lines and Cells 2020 Part One”
Gaze Short Film Series
I have within my practice made short films. In the past they have been a comment on the gaze. This series have been made in the past year and all are out takes from my day, incidental gazes, short captures when my focus has been drawn to an episode in the day. I have simplyContinue reading “Gaze Short Film Series”

I am beginning to tell my story and the work is developing into a new direction, one thread inContinue reading “Transitions a body of work continued”
Work in progress August 12th
Recent Drawing work I produced this set of drawings whilst away from the postgraduate studios. I used discarded life drawings, put my system of 7×9 ruled lines over the top and started to erase areas of the drawings and redraw them. I worked on 14 upright pieces then 18 landscape pieces. I made the piecesContinue reading “Work in progress August 12th”
Visual research July 2020
This is a visual journey throughout July 2020. Images inform my wider projects and I am always looking for pattern, line, spatial elements in my environment. I have always used my camera to record my everyday journey.
Visual Research June 2020
The following images are from walks and trips to find source material. Some of the visual research are ongoing studies of growth of crops, or the way light falls in a room in my home.
analogue photography patterns and shape in landscape
I have used my isolation walks to make some observational photographs. I initially just used the iPhone to shoot these, but decided to try to make some analogue photographs of some of my walks. I am interested in the tree shapes, their shadows and the patterns I find in these. I have used and contrastContinue reading “analogue photography patterns and shape in landscape”
7 x 9 drawings using life drawing
I spent part of my lockdown getting back into my home studio, and in the process of clearing out I found a series of life drawings. I decided to use these and take the figure into a more abstracted space by applying the system 7 x 9 to them. I divided the drawings up andContinue reading “7 x 9 drawings using life drawing”
Visual Research 30th May
This series of images was recorded during May 2020, both on walks and in the home. Images like this provide me with source material for drawings and generate ideas for making.
