COLLECTION: fabricated narratives
My work is concerned with the messages, stories and narratives given by shape and colour in abstract forms. The ‘reading’ of paintings has been often discussed and theorised and a work of art which ‘speaks’ to a viewer can convey stunningly powerful messages. I am intrigued by this aspect of visual art making and continue to investigate how this works though my textiles. I am using the power of abstract expressionism to explore interactions and ripples of influence in my works.
