The Model Animate or Inanimate

 

The Model animate or inanimate is used as reference material, the subject matter.

I am looking for the transition between formal exterior physicality of structure, and interior content.

The aesthetic combination of these elements is my fascination with creating a visual idea.

My interest is in how things are built; both the logic of physics that holds them together, and the inner content that is implied.

These are the elements that reveal identity and individuality. Both real and imagined .

My first consideration is scale, it is crucial to the sense of presence I’m after, it is the most important element of composition.

The process revealed at every stage of design is an important part of the finished work, showing the transition between formal and inner space.

Combining what is perfect with it’s particular idiosyncrasies; seen and imagined,takes an inner image into a visual language.
