Urban Works

Small works representing imagery of the Perth CBD focus on the patterning and layering of the architectural and natural environment.

This has allowed an exploration of a very different colour palette reflecting the diffusion of the artificial vibrant lighting within the night urban environment. Again, the subtle transparence and layering encourage the viewer to become immersed in the sense of place evoked within the image.

These works are created through digitally manipulating photographs of the urban environment.

These are then worked into with acrylic and oil media, as well as machine stitched application of metal shim and other textile fabrics. These layers are then finished with high gloss resin to enhance the luminosity of the colours and the transparent layering of textures and hues.
