'Minute Inconsistencies'

My work is informed by my background in structural engineering and is

rooted in my interest in architectural detail, space, the way that shape and

form provide stability and the effects created by superimposition of lines.

It incorporates the techniques and formal qualities of technical drawing

before the advent of CAD – qualities of precision, regimentation, the

repetition of line and reference to geometry and measurement. Unlike

CAD these works contain minute inconsistencies. The spacing, whilst

measured, is imprecise, the thickness of line is variable. These ‘flaws’

evident in the hand-drawn pieces, add qualities that make each unique –

sometimes the arrangements of line create visual disturbances and

illusions beyond the original architectural or formal references. Whilst the

works are clearly concerned with man-made form and celebrate the

modern, they are also pieces in their own right – abstractions that explore

and extend pictorial space through the use of light, line and colour. These

works are also developing into abstractions by the exploration related

drawing techniques.
