"By believing passionately in something that still does not exist, wecreate it. The nonexistent is whatever we have not sufficientlydesired." Franz Kafka

Artistic Approach...

As I was walking along Pitt St in the corner of my eye I sighted a mammoth art work, I was drawn towards the detailed work of art. As I observed the work I was intrigued by the detail, the density and precision used to create such a marvellous piece. The piece reflected 'The last judgement', the vivid colours and complex nature of the work encapsulated me and the passers by that gazed in awe of the artists talent. The artist was not only working on the beautiful piece, but had also created numerous smaller works for the public to take with them that were placed in front with a sign stating 'Free, Please take one'. The artist was connecting with his audience on a very personal level through sharing his talent and allowing the audience to keep his art as a token of remembrance. I found this to be a unique characteristic that I have not previously observed, the audience could feel an emotional bond with the artist and his work through this beautiful practise. I felt as though the artist truly wanted to share his passion with us, not only was his artistic approach authentic but also very intimate and welcoming, through this a distinctive and sincere atmosphere was created.

"Studies of the past enable us to understand where we have come from, and something of the complex choices and decisions that have led to where we are today. Without that perspective our understanding is limited. We become prisoners of the present, unable to foresee alternatives, or recognise our own possibilities of choice" Hazel, H 1987

In a Geometric abstract frame of mind...

These pieces are influenced by architectural framework, industrial textures and the chaotic atmosphere of large cities. Ive depicted this through the range of textural fabrics, the usage of neutral colour combinations and the variations of fabrications to convey the 'chaos'. Urban landscapes and post modernism in todays society are the basis of these pieces from my current collection.
