Fragmented rudimentary hand-drawings sourced from notes and sketchbooks form the basis of abstract moving image, Vague Grey Cloud. The selected drawings are ‘auditioned’, but their potential is ambiguous until they enter the digital realm. Working through a process of intention and chance, the narrative continuously shifts as I am guided by the transformative qualities of drawing for choreographed sequences of archetypal imagery, amorphous forms, and remnants of decayed structures. The transparent cube, a recurring motif in my work, speaks of fragility and resilience in the face of adversity and the unknown. Ultimately, the once disregarded, with care, becomes elevated with new meaning and power.
