These
images explore the visibility of the surface, its structure and restructure.
They derive from a project based upon themes surrounding lace, where I examined
ideas of relief and the notion of the visible and the unseen. Using everyday
objects, such as elastic bands, paper clips and drawing pins, I created shibori
samples which translated form and dimension. These outcomes marry my initial
influences and play with the ideas I have explored – forms of relief and
structure, the opacity and visibility of a surface and the creation of an
intimate landscape through fabric manipulation. Photographing my work aided me
in establishing the surface as a landscape, as well as allowing me to create a
second surface, through shadows. It has enabled me to deceptively convey scale
and form, as well as allowing me to act as a mediator between a viewer and the
original piece.
