New installations:

  •  Thinking about the space that I place these intense works in: giving them room to illuminate the space around them, focus on the intensity of colour (separating colour from objects), and allowing them to radiate and hover off the ground.
  • I want to also explore different colour combinations and sensations: joyful, exciting, sickly, dull, boring, overwhelming etc.
  • I also plan to try placing them on every floor in the art department as surprising discoveries of sensation for the viewer. Presenting a condense, compact mass wool ( an everyday/familiar) material that speaks to the viewer beyond just the material and into a world of system, rhythm and order of pattern and colour. There is an intensity in each work that brings about these sensations and I often try to work with introducing chaos amongst the rhythm and movment, using a variety of colours and surprising colour relationships.






From one of my annotated bibliography readings:

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The power of colour (excess and intensity)

  • Colour in nature: used for reproduction, attraction of the females
  • Helps use to be aware of our surroundings
  • Historical conventions - green = go, red = danger etc.
