Applications, 2016.
Ribbons on Clams, 2016 (1 of 3)
[Acrylic, Reverse Vinyl Graphic Print, LED. 500x500mm]
These 3 works have been created through an application on my phone, allowing arbitrary and impulsive design choices to be formally represented. Ubiquitous features found in applications allow a myriad of contrasting design preferences that currently over-saturate social media and infiltrate ways in which we view online imagery.
Photos previously taken and stored on my phone, or freshly photographed images are combined, which in turn creates a digital narrative captured by myself as the user. This also allows a protagonist role to be present within the work. Apps used to create compositions are chosen, at random, from my tool- box of design applications. This aspect further represents the personal and global immediacy in technology that we have insistently become reliant on.
Investigation into iphone applications as alternative art making tools, material utilization and translations of digital compositions becoming physical objects are three prevalent areas of research informing this final installation.
Currently in Chartwell Trust, Auckland Art Gallery, Toi o Tamaki, New Zealand.

Exhibition: Wāhine Take Action (Level 2 Gallery, 6-8pm), showcasing the tools and tactics woman have used to fight for their causes over the past 125 years.
