This painting, the first of 2021, follows on from work I started making in 2018.
The glowing line on a field of noise has become more complex thanks to the geometric experiments and insights of drawings made last year. Here I am using the same tessellating forms as my recent watercolour work, in which a composition is discovered by projecting lines from the corners of a grid, moving up one side and then reflected down the other. In the execution of this painting I have again attempted to retain something of the scratchiness of a drawn surface and allowed for many minor imperfections and bleeds to occur.
A balancing of elements in this signal-to-noise ratio.
