Oct 2007 ARTWORKS FOR SALE
Since the end of my studies in June 2007 I have been working with the new materials which I discovered towards the end of the Stage 3 Course. These new materials are wood, irrigation tubing, electric and copper wire and acrylic paint.
Although my materials are 3D, I am still working in the medium of painting/drawing. That is, it is painting/drawing but not quite, and it is sculpture but not quite. It is the slippage between the two – it is object but it speaks of the space of painting/drawing. This is my historical response to art. Then to make it even more interesting, I am responding culturally. How? First, I work horizontally – just look at the way indigenous men and women work - on the ground – looking down (away from our normal upright self way of looking/seeing). When working this way, I am reading and/or sensing with my body – it’s a different approach to a way of ‘seeing’. Secondly, the skills of binding, wrapping, tying, knotting that can be found in the works of indigenous groups are also evident in my works. These skills I have transferred into my new materials.
Right now, my works can be found at the following two galleries;
