The spikes, I must say that they have been on my main focus during the latter part of 2012. I admit they were originally conceived around the end of 2011, but at the time they were nothing more than a concept and if I were to focus on them I’m sure my course work may have been worse than it was. Since the project “articulated space” which I was set at university, which was to “fill a space”, they have become more than the simple Idea I created nearly a year ago. It was an enjoyable project to undertake, even to the point it has been the main focus of my university work and my own practice, as well as changing my artistic style.
In my own opinion this simple shape has sprouted so many variations of ideas (I’ve been creating an ideas book of what I can do). Most of them have been used for my course projects, a few have been made as tests to see if that idea will work, an example of this is The little world in the test section of this website, most will never see life as they are either too expensive or it is simply too difficult to make with my current experience.
Enough of my writing about my work, instead ill just let you wander through the spikes section of the website and see for yourself. Also the night-time gallery ties in with “the spikes”.
