This piece is part of a new body of work, inspired by my "Deconstructed" series. Where previously my mixed-media works used the shapes of dress pattern pieces as figurative elements to explore Cubist space, in this new work the memory of those shapes informs a more painterly approach that is more expressive and where gestural mark-making creates layered shapes, which in turn, produce evolving figures. Those figures appear mechanical because their origins are templates for the tailoring of second skins. A tailor lays out the templates for the pieces that go to make up a garment, which resemble a collection of body parts to be configured into a whole object, the robotic figures in my work appear to be self-assembling from the components of the gestural mark-making that I have laid on the canvas Work is created on gallery wrap canvas and sealed with a gloss UV protective varnish and ready to hang.
