This work came out of the process of making other work, the underlying surface revealed, a solid bar of undulating coloured energy. The detail of rough edges is diminished with distance, appearing hard edged from afar and softer or woven on close inspection.
I was very happy to have had this work exhibited at the National Art School (Sydney) as part of the Dobell Drawing Prize #22. It was a thrill to see it there in the gallery, somewhat out of place amongst all the other drawing.
This significant work continues to feed into what I am thinking and making now. A new body of work is slowly emerging, with a returned focus on painting and surface.
