These are examples of my work in the built environment where images interact with space and place.
London’s Transport Museum
Paper cuts used as stencils for sand blasted glass.
This is a 25 foot glass wall depicting children’s transport commissioned for screening off the children’s study area in the museum. Each panel depicts a form of transport used by children: skate board, go cart, roller blades, tricycle, pedal car, walking.
Mount Stewart School Library
Emulsion paint and papercuts
A complete re-decoration of the library was commissioned to increase children’s desire to read books and use the library. The mural was painted with trade emulsions and the friezes were paper cuts in coloured paper glued straight onto the wall.
St Leonards Edgelands
Linocut
‘St Leonards Edgelands’ was a print installation, part of Point of Decay, made for the launch event of Coastal Currents Arts Festival in Bottle Alley, St Leonards on Sea.
Bottle Alley runs along the southernmost edge of St Leonards and has decayed physically and socially since it was built in the 1930s. The images of caryatids and incident tape tie the coastal edge of the town to its northern edgeland, Hollington Valley nature reserve, which was until the year before a home to animal, plant and human populations. Now it has been felled to make way for a road, two roundabouts and industrial estates. Edgelands are full of riches of one sort and another. Biodiversity or ‘development’ potential depnding upon your perspective. The prints on the southern edgeland decayed, peeled, and have now been removed.
