Paper Works: RWA Biennial Open
I'm delighted to be exhibiting two durational-day-drawings in the exhibition Paper Works, the RWA’s Biennial exhibition. These process based drawings I am showing for the first time, continue my exploration of landscape, time and transience. The works are made in, of and about the landscape; the result of a particular set of conditions, in a particular place, over a particular span of time. They record celestial time, geological time and human time as well as the weather patterns unique to the days and sites: one made in Assynt, north west Scotland and the other in rural Somerset.
RWA says: 'Selected from an open submission it celebrates paper as a surface for drawing and printmaking and as a sculptural material. Paper is the star of the show revealing itself in many different guises. Hand made paper, different types of Japanese tissue, papier maché, and paper pulp are just some of the materials being used to create drawings paintings sculpture and architectural models. It is manipulated, burnt, cast, folded, walked on and torn. It is used for collage and all types of printmaking from lino to collograph, lithography, etching and woodcut.
