At the beginning of this year I have struggled and my progression had been slow. I struggle to make decisions in the fear that certain developments will destroy the current stage of work. This has been as real challenge for me but in recent months I have come out of my comfort zone and taken risks. These have mostly been successful and some not so much but by continuing with the development I have been able to discover new interest aspects of my work allowing for further development.
I labelled my art as ‘drawing in the expanding field’, not as mixed media because my process and technique defines my creative development, not the media I use. In essence drawing is making a mark in the form of line space and form using friction to transform materials into art. Drawing is not dependent on the materials used as it is a gestural action describing something in space. My work can be explained as a form of hybridity, demonstrate my exploration of materials, building this layered formation of evolution emphasising transformation.
