I splayed out 10000 plus tiles. A work dealing with a multi-faceted level of engagement. I have brought my ideas toward painting forward into a way of explaining my ideas through installation. By continuing to use intuition in the distribution i have used a range of corrugated card tiles to explain the prevalence of the materials and give an added depth to the piece by the use of 'found' objects to age the work. My training in painting and mostly a pursuit in abstract expression originally has lead me to a form of communication that may be seen as similiar to constructivism or minimalist sculpture. By trying to describe an arena that is ubiquitous with in our culture by the simplest means through an interactive work to address the system of exchange. My earlier posts describe the role that can be played by the participant or the relevance of the work without the evidence of the viewer. I still see the installations as paintings, through their process and application. The same reference materials and range of objects used in my paintings can be found in the installations. The process is as important in the installtions as it is for me in the paintings. The installations allow me a way to create more of an environment than my earlier wall hangers. ................
A new wave is brewing just off the coast of this experience that may incorporate both of the facets. we will see.
