I’ve been in the sudio this week surrendered to the idea of play and experiment.
I’ve been using Mondrian grids as a kind of portal that leads from my practice to form an interface with Josh’s photographic work and by using this structure it allows me to really study Josh’s work and I’m starting to get a feel for his aesthetic. Certain images are standing out for me: the lady in the burka, the man at his desk in the shop.
I seem to be more and more interested in making a 3D response to the photographic surface. This week I have been using clay and piercing the surface of the print. I think the clay connection is odd and interesting considering Josh was a ceramicist in a past life, maybe this is another way for me to narrow the gaps between us.
