there's definitely something going on with the suppressed growth of plants in my drawings. a lot of controlled or inhibited growth seems to be implied by holding down branches. bringing the upward trajectory of the growth drive down toward the earth or back toward the origin of the expansion. what that means for the intrinsic concept of the work, is yet to be fully articulated. but the notion of combative forces at play is clearly driving some of these drawings.
some networked nodes have also been appearing in the drawings. networks form a common body of work in my output. the mapping of the centres of the nodes has something of interest for me here, especially the way in which the geometry couples with the organic elements. something worth exploring more. the pulsating nature of the nodes reminds me of growth rings or rippled water. waves, oscillations, binary.
