The textures with their colour variations are linear, beaten and marked with heavier
surface indentations creating a textural duality in a single form. To heighten these deeper textures
required a different colour palette and more experimentation, ultimately leading to a radical
departure in assemblage.
The final challenge was to rationalise this profusion of ideas creating contrasts - the underlying
theme of my current work where pieces stand alone or enhance the visual interest of a seemingly
disparate group. The idea of contrasts is conceptually simple. It is only in the complex and innovative
process of making that these conceptually exciting possibilities are revealed.
