Balla, a sketch study for a new animated drawing
I've got a few sketches of work in progress to share here. These are early days sketches of a new process I'm developing, partially although not entirely in response to the RWA's Paper Work Biennial. I wanted to revert back to using graphite and pencil as the basis for a study, which I pretty much always do, but instead of abandoning that work at what I might call the 'fag packet' stage, I wanted to push through and complete a fully realised drawing as a more complex understudy for a new work, Balla.

Flow 8VO
Flow 8VO is a new digital screen art piece utilising a redrawn version of my 2007 ‘Flow’ geometry. This new study adds time and motion, to create a durational kinetic artwork for screen display. The work sequences eight individually rendered 40 second movements, with twenty eight 40 second transitional phases, to create a 24 minute sequence, that loops seamlessly.
