DIGITAL DRAWINGS

Through a desire to explore a larger scale in my work, I have created digital renders of sculptures that relate in scale to the human form. The structure of these sculptures draw on a direct connection to industrial architectural forms such as gas cylinders. Their framework would be made of steel, constructed to allow curved ceramic panels to hang from an interior frame. The negative spaces within the panels would respond to and enhance the viewers experience of shifting light as they move around the work. The qualities of shadow and light changing with natural light throughout the day.

These speculative works have the potential to sit in an outdoor environment as well as an interior gallery setting.
