This piece, entitled Void was one of a large series of prints. The idea led on from my automatic writing in This Veritable Mess of Appetite, which I reused in this new context.
I layered the text up repeatedly, in a very simple fashion to create something I was amazed with; it’s almost like a landscape of my unconscious.
I am fascinated by geometric abstract forms that act as all encompassing statements. The problem however lies in that these are often utopian fictions that deny reality as much as they try to make sense of it. The problem, I believe, is one of balance. The key is to find a dialogue between order and chaos, without falling into utopian fallacy. We need order – but we also need the anarchic. A touch of imperfection makes a transient thing of purity and genius. It is this that I constantly search for.
