About this artwork
The sparkle of the universe!
While creating this piece, I was inspired by the enigmatic beauty of the universe. The interconnected drill holes and oxidised staining capture a series of moments in time. The oxidised markings of copper sulphide and sulphate emerge from the holes in a three-dimensional setting, creating embedded structural impulses on the flat picture plane. Also, depending on the lighting and your position within the room, the gold… mirrored backdrop that is visible through the holes reflects back to us this spontaneous reality at different times of the day, making it more than just a painting.
Oxidised copper sheet (.55mm thickness), sealed with a micro-crystalline wax polish. Mounted to a wooden panel (6mm) with gold acrylic mirrors.

« Membrane Art is a doorway to endless possibilities. It’s heavily dependent upon the geometric surface which underpins it, and until it's unraveled, we are blind to all possible outcomes. »
My father is profoundly deaf, and my mother is deaf and blind. Although I am able-bodied and possess painting and drawing skills, I make an artistic choice not to execute my art conventionally. I produce my art with limited visual input to achieve my artistic objectives. Painting on curved structures enables me to do this. It is a blind process that enables me to explore chance outcomes and discover complete aesthetic images. I learn from these experiences and am obligated to accept outcomes that may not be aesthetically correct, but I must tolerate them. It is who I am, and it is the only way I feel authentic to my upbringing. It reflects my interactions with the world.
This body of work, which explores the enigmatic boundary between the present and the future, from the tension inherent in a curved surface to the tranquillity of a flat plane, it invites us on a transformative, non-linear journey, encouraging deeper contemplation and meditation on our observations.
