Sporadic Reflection Print

'Sporadic Reflection' was inspired by my need to create using my hands and to illustrate my thought patterns during a time where I was far too immersed in digital art due to my line of work being primarily in the print industry and most of the jobs being carried out on MAC's. The cliché of going through tough times rings true with this collage, the imagery depicts aspects of my life which were brought to the forefront of my thoughts and I expelled them on to this canvas to create an array of colours and textures and abstract illustrations along with some typography to represent racing thoughts. The art work takes on a grunge/graffiti style which is a homage to my roots and the catalysts which propelled me to pursue an education and career in the creative industries. The design helped me remember how far I have came within my field, it was a therapeutic creation which features many details of character and thought intertwined with expressions and emotions. Each texture represents a thought or feeling, this piece appeals visually but is also stimulating to the touch.
