Often referencing aspects of ritual, ceremony and adornment, Haywood’s work explores our relationship with objects. Material and process is combined to create a non-verbal dialogue. Visual clues are generated from specific combinations of colour, form and scale. Individual components evoke readings which are multi-layered and material qualities are intensified when viewed in relation to a range of contrasting physical traits.
Works are contradictory in nature, playful yet sombre, tactile but austere, familiar and unfamiliar. Function is suggested but never fully resolved. These ambiguities permit an open reading and allow Haywood to explore ways in which poetic structures can function visually.
