WORK: 3D PIECES

I’ve been recently working a series of 3D projects; on paper sculptures and some fabric and chickenwire objects.

These works are about process, labour, truth and creating beauty from cheap materials.

For my paper pieces I saturate rolls of paper with layers of drawings, marks, form and colour using watercolour ink. Often I will include some “Easter eggs” such as landscapes, portraits and written messages in these layers. The process is an exercise in patience and efficiency; I work on a whole roll, rolling each section out to work on and arrange so there’s minimal sticking and contamination. I cover both sides of the paper, so I have to leave each side to dry before I construct the pieces.
