South coast housing 2 Drawing

An expressive and dramatic drawing of a south coast housing estate, designed by Lyons Israel Ellis from 1969. These start life as my photographic work, collaged and manipulated on the computer, before they are scaled up for drawing in the studio. My work has focused on architecture since foundation, and I am attracted to large concrete, run-down, and often brutalist buildings. I explore the nature of place and space through various mediums, as I investigate our relationship, and interaction with the built environment.
