'NOTIONS OF BEAUTY'
Innovative surfaces and structures, interest and excite me. I have a passion for colour, texture and designs.
My inspiration cows from flower and dried flowers. The subtle colours and fragile look of different types of roses are a basis for my designs. Looking at traces of flowers has pushed me into developing my personal style through colour and composition.
I echo qualities from the subject throughout my collection of work. A variety of depth through layers is processed and explored through cutting edge digital print, traditional screen printed techniques. Mixed media and college are important , using negative and positive aspects to create traces of tonal space. The use of stitch embellishment creates atmosphere.
Transparency reflects a fragile delicate look, which is important to me. The use of light reflects traces of design. These designs attempt to mirror and repeat the same beautiful perfection. I enjoy working towards 2D as well as 3D structures for contemporary interior spaces.
