Thinking through making.

I've been screen printing on a variety of transparent surfaces such as plastic ( PVC) and perspex. The subject matter started of with the word ' Colour'. What is it about colour that drives my work? I that about the idea of :
1) colour seperation/ layering
2) colour through light ( hence the transparent material)
3) colour rhythms and patterns

How I understand my thinking towards my practice. Funny how it already looks like my artwork.

There is a ' buzziness' in the eye of the beholder when my work is perceived.  In some cases I have deliberately hung my plastic so that natural folds take place and you get this strange complexity of coloured pixels overlaying each other. Much like those you get of a print, but zoomed in.

There was a comment about rhythm being predominant in this series of work.  With pattern there is repetition and with repetition there is predictability. What if I disrupt the rhythm? How does that change  the 'beauty' or order in the work? Something to think about and maybe approach in my future pieces.

I never explained why I am fond of clear materials. In dealing with colour and light, I did not want to use paper or any white surface for light to bounce of it. Clear plastic accepts all light that passes through it, giving my work slightly different effects depending on the time of the day or specific light. This brings me to the idea that colour is not grounded and is constantly evolving and changing.
