The piece is finally up,
still can't quite work out the reasons for making and where it's heading, but I
am quite happy with it being another link in the chain. I do feel that some more work is needed. I definitely want
to simplify/abstract further, with the focus being on shape and form. I
am becoming increasingly interested in semiotics and sign systems. I like
that idea of creating a language in shape format, which could help strengthen the visual continuation. I have been looking in particular at the
works of Keith Haring and Philip Guston, who have used recurring forms, albeit figurative
in nature, which help generate a strength and permanence to the art.
I have also managed to pick
up 'My first Octagons', which coincidently and unintentionally are the
same colours as the cloths above; still keeping the idea of play in mind. It's
drawing time I think....
