The Degree Show 2012.
So a series of my paintings with the current working title of ‘Archipelago’, are near completeion, and with a few more steadily on their way. I am looking to have approximately 10 or so paintings to choose from for the degree show. My Degree show is going to be a selection of some of these paintings, with the maximum being around 3-5 depending on which size and how many are chosen and what space I have and a plethora of delightfully other stressful variables. Stress is the wrong word through I feel, its an odd combination of excitement, anxiety and freedom. Everything is slowly coming into place, my current works are doing everything I want them to do, they function as both painterly objects and interesting images, their scale is appropriate for the level of representation, they have a conceptual drive, spurred on by my curious nature in relational painting, and im using some exciting paints; such as: graphite paint, bitumen and enamel. I would show a picture of the work in progress but unfortunately my memory card is broken. Pictures soon, very soon.
