Collection: Mapping place

An overlay of a Cartesian grid maps out composition. X + Y are varied lengths and width that divide and subdivide the picture plane. A ‘picture within picture’ results in snapshots of stories. Colour blocks become abstractions - stories unfold as space is filled by memories. The viewer is invited to piece together memories to complete the image. Three dimensional explorations currently underway explore the expression of place moving the picture plane towards the ‘Z’.
