.
Myriad is a study based on a number of ideas for processing digitally drawn sculptural forms, that I was keen to explore further for my Generator show.
The drawing progresses from a circular core to a square form at its outer edges, literally squaring the circle.
The whole form becoming redolent of a 12” record, perhaps a white label, or similar unbranded sleeve often used for limited releases and remix EPs, a format which of course comprises a circular vinyl disc in a square paper sleeve.
The drawing utilises a repeating diamond shard motif as a kind of stylus, which refracts colour and light, spiralling outward to form a myriad of pieces, geometrically symmetrical along the core axes.
Whilst the luminosity level of each piece remains static, the hues originally progressed through a 360 degree cycle, opposing colours mirrored on the main facets of each prism, before being edited into a more considered palette of contrasting hues.
Creating a broad range of largely unmodulated drawings, I wanted to set up a number of 'ready to use' image components, that could be edited, mixed and layered in a rapid process of glazing and recolouring.
By working with these pre prepared base drawings, the previously time consuming method of resolving a new piece is replaced by a far faster process analogous with the way a recording may be multitracked and edited, to form a number of iterations or mixes.
A process that allows for the reassembly of the core elements, in near real time, into a broad selection of variations in colour, form, light and movement. Potentially dozens of iterations that can then be honed down into a final edit of the most successful pieces, before colour proofing and editioning.
In its initial iteration, I left the core empty, to emphasise the sense of the record sleeve, more recently I've been adding in a laser cut disc, to emphasise the idea of the record, both seem to work well.

The work is individually signed and numbered verso, with both a unique catalogue raisonné number and the edition number for guaranteed authenticity. From an edition of 8 Image size ⋅ 84cm H x 200cm W . Back in the shoegazing years, when I was studying at the old Hornsey School of Art, there was a beautiful surge of guitar fuelled wall of noise bands on the scene, one of whom, Chapterhouse, released a track entitled Breather. It’s a piece that’s stuck with me ever since. Breather was drawn a little while after Eight...Category

Work can be supplied unmounted and ready to frame if you’d prefer. The work is individually signed and numbered verso, with both a unique catalogue raisonné number and the edition number for guaranteed authenticity. From an edition of 8 Image size ⋅ 94cm H x 120cm W ⋅ 3 panels . Le Klint Studio is an inspiration to anyone who loves paper folding, contemporary design, and light. So, of course, I couldn’t resist making a series of origami like geometries for a new set of works in 2015. Le Klint Studio, to my mind, are particularly well known for their folded paper pendant shades, contemporary designs which are as beautiful as they are ubiquitous. The image I made is not an identikit line work, more an homage based around some of the origami like folds they use, with the addition of colour glazes and offset transparencies. I've also added a grid like structure of darkly shaded lines and accents, that brings the geometry to life. The first piece I drew, ACDH (acid house...Category

It was the first piece that spoke directly to the idea of drawing glass, using translucent glazes, and layers of transparencies, that in some way capture the excitement of seeing a great piece of studio glass, or contemporary stained glass...Category
