Artists I enjoy and the ones that inspire me
“IN ORBIT”
On Space Time Foam
I particular like the idea of creating an interactive environment that can change a viewer’s perspective. Saraceno’s work has that in his work. They are amazing environment and I want to take at list a bit of that into my work. And the precision of his structure is something that I lack especially the looking ahead bit. So I’m trying to add that to it and cutback on doing this on the wimp
Inaba’s work attracts me because of the chaos that it has in it but at the same time the precision that chaos can bring. I see that in my work the disarray of line strings and shapes that in the end come in to create picture.
“spirit Houses”
Williams work was my main inspiration for the final piece. After looking at her cocoon works, I was inspired to create a sort of a cocoon like structure out of string. This environment, a world that and a protective shell from the outside. Protecting the silk bug from the outside. In the way a mash up of strings reminds me of how cocoons are constructed till they become what they are.
AND WHAT WE SEE NOW I BUILT WITH MY DETACHMENT
Eucline use of colors is something that I like to employ in my artworks. I specifically the contrast of colors that in the same time are supportive colors its something that I try to put in t my work.
Roger Hiorns
“Seizure”
Hiorns art made me interested in the environment and at the same time in the technique of crystalizing object. This also made me to look in to the chemistry behind crystalizing. Which made me look in to imitating a natural crystalized rock.
I found Naum Gabo particularly interest due to the idea kinetic art (the creation of an illusions and depth that are perceivable by the viewer) my art does not physically moves how ever it changes depending on the angle it is looked from.
plexus no. 3, plexus no. 5 and plexus no. 8
Gabriel Dawe and Sébastien Preschoux installations particularly interested me due to their use of color with witch they explore the density of light and the effect it creates on the thread.
Maurizio Anzeri

He makes his portraits by sewing directly into found vintage photographs. How ever the thing that interested me the most was the shapes that he can create with thread. If you look at some parts of my work I tried to create those shapes in 3D form. (They can only be seen under specific angles)
Mellisa Gordon
She was the artist that I looked at first and her idea of layering to create an affect stuck with me throught the whole term
Artist from artist talks that i think relate to me:
Barbara Walker
Walker’s work really connect with my art works in the way of how fleeing they are and how much she works spends on one singular idea. Working and reworking the same concept over and over again. That something that I find in my art works. The scale of some of her artworks attracts me to her work
Simon O’Sullivan
O’Sullivan Plastic fantastic seem so strange and confusing. In a way some of my art work is stage. Yes not in the way his art work but a lot of people do not get a meaning straight on the spot out of my work and has to think about it for sometime. But in the same way I create my own reality with string and especially with final piece. This fictional maze that a person can get lost in.
