The light bulb effect

Thinking about how memories are imprinted within our minds and how like a light bulb effect certain memories are remembered. How the thought is concealed and then the action is revealed.
Using gesso as a way of concealing the light bulbs.

Block amp drawing

Pen drawing using individual dotted marks to represent the indivdual neurons within the brain to form a complete circuit.

Circuit stitches

Creating samples of stitched networks, a mass of french knots and hanging threads.

Brain circuits

The brain has billions of neurons, arranged in complex circuits that allow us to percieve the world, control our movements and make decisions.
Deciphering these circuits is critical to understanding how the brain works and what goes wrong in neurological disorders.

Block amp fuses

Thinking about how a fuse could represent the brain, as it controls activity. Trying to find ways of incorporating fuses in stitched samples to express the idea of a journey to the brain.

Block amps

Making my own circuits using block amps, thinking about the repetitive nature of the amps and perhaps how I could use these on a mass scale.

Agnes Martin

From looking at minimalist art such as the work of Agnes Martin, thinking about how her work is very ordered and clinical. I intend to make my samples with these elements in mind. Trying to find ways of representing something very complex but in an ordered and structured way.
