I am currently preparing for degree show and assessment. Its getting exciting but terrifying and time is short!
Im attempting to finish two works, both of which explore the essential materials of painting. I have stretched a canvas, pulled the canvas off the frame and am unpicking the canvas thread by thread. When the threads are unpicked they are soaked in oil medium before being laid back over the stretcher. It’s very laborious but satisfying! Both works are the same process, one is a 120 x 200cm stretcher, the other 50 x 35cm.
All is coming together but installation on thursday will be a little nerve racking as I haven’t settled on a way of showing the works yet. Excited to get playing with them in the space though!
