Laser Castle

2009-05-18T03:26:00.000-07:00

After going through plans in my sketchbook, i booked out the laser machine to test out my concepts. I went through two sketchbooks testing, and working out the kinks before finding a solution and completing a whole book without mistakes. I designed the original castle image on the model making program Rhino, then moved it into illustrator to change the colour vectors before it was finally ready to be read by the laser machine. these photos document my results.

These photographs document the composition space between my own and Tony Cragg's sculpture at the Kube Gallery, Poole. They are placed at opposing sides of the space, providing an interesting relationship which compliments the courtyard surrounding the building, and invites attractive viewpoints ranging from one side to the other.

All the work in this folder is constructed from found materials, assembled together to create an alternative use from its original purpose. The combination of these found materials currently takes the form of fantastical creatures. I prefer to gather a small mixture of unknown objects by chance (without going out and searching for them specifically), reacting spontaneously to the materials I end up with.

Concept drawings for use on the flyers and posters of an upcoming event in bournemouth, taking place at 'The Old Firestation'. I was asked to supply the drawings as simple line drawings only, so they could be easily manipulated by the events graphic designer.

This is an altered version of a piece i did for an exhibition at a venue in Bournemouth on the 18th of october 2008. The concept behind the piece was envisioned after spending some time in the first stone castle i built.

Patchwork Castle

2008-11-25T01:52:00.000-08:00

The continuation of the presentation of fantastical ideas through the physical process of interactive sculpture. In my endeavour to communicate imaginative ideas of my own utopian environment, my practice has veered towards the application of architectural construction, as a means of formulating my concepts. This piece titled ‘Patchwork Castle’ was an equal collaboration between Dale Ponsford and myself. Although we constructed the piece together, we each fulfilled the task with different aspirations and goals in mind, both relating to our own individual contemporary practice. The exhibition was in the end a successful endeavour, and I feel I received a great deal of experience over the course of the project. Even though we incorporated our own ideas into the work, this piece was essentially site specific, and fundamentally we assembled it to work with the theme of the venue. The use of retro, psychedelic carpet attached to every external surface of the structure proved appealing and becoming of the location.

The structure met to health and safety regulations, a frustrating but needed requirement when building anything in a public space. An obligation allowing the castle’s slide to be a functional object, required either myself or Dale to monitor and restrict the number of guests into and onto the second floor of the installation. We took shifts in this task and avoided any unnecessary injuries, which may have occurred had we neglected our responsibilities.

Polygon-Cube Castle

2008-10-27T12:05:00.000-07:00

A castle built entirely out of a singular hand drawn cube. a contrasting piece compared to the physically built structures of my previously crafted castles. i continued to construct the building in the same way as you would if you were to build it in real life. from the singular cube i created a 6 x 3 brick and proceeded to lay them as if i was physically constructing the structure applying to trade standards, interlocking the corners at each level, creating a professionally sound building.
This took roughly over two and a half hours to produce, using the computer program adobe photoshop.

Mr Snow

2008-10-13T05:46:00.000-07:00

These are the first few drawings of a series i am exhibiting for Ishihara, an event being held at 60 million postcards in bournemouth. The first event takes place wednesday the 15th of October and will change on a monthly basis. Next months theme is den's, this is fortunate for me as it fits in heavilly with my contemporary practise, so i will be exhibiting an instilation aswell as a series of seperate drawings unnasociated with my sculptural work.

This series of pen and ink illustrations depicts a fictional character fittingly named Mr Snow. It shows him going about his daily bussiness, and partaking in various activities to occupy his time. i wanted to keep the lines simple and clean, each piece has been drawn in a continuous line style with a size 0.05 nib.
