MA sixteen and torn Painting

Since 2004, I have been developing the idea that a different kind of aesthetic is created when expressions are deployed on a curved canvas (rather than a flat ‘two dimensional’ plane). The marks created in this way take on the form of the geometric profile. So when they are unraveled and stretched-out to the two dimensional picture plane, the aesthetic emerges. I call this approach Membrane Art. As it is the curved profile of the ‘membrane surfaces’ that underpins the development of each artwork. An aesthetic thought that I continue to evolve.
