I am excited about being a finalist for this years Parkin Drawing Prize.
Using a sewing machine as my pencil, Layer upon layer of tulle and cotton draw an almost haunting holographic image that represents movement, time and distance.
The images of Ukrainian refugees escaping their country were a stark reminder of historical wars we witnessed on our monochrome TV screens. Yet current times of misinformation suggest the facts are no longer black and white.
I drew pencil figures on white canvas which were removed after the tulle was added. Random off-cuts were then salvaged from the floor and applied unconsciously to create blurred lines to distort the truth.
