sonnendeck ---- evening nr.2

Testing different light. Previously, I set up my work in areas with natural light, morning sun and strong shadows. There is not much daylight in my space here, and the days are getting so short as well. A good opportunity for me to work with different artificial light. I'm also more and more interested in silhouettes, what happens if there is not a spotlight on the structure, but the light coming from behind.


Planted tulips and daffodils today! In the lovely art space garden - only a shame that I won't be here when they flower. Hope Adrian will remember to send me a photo!!!

coast. erosion.

sonnendeck ----

What a mess. But I know what I'm doing...have hardly touched any tools since I came here, so many other things to do; excited to get started again. And this is only the first day---

constructions above and under water

Got a whole series of photographs by now of structures close to or above the sea. I find it most fascinating how different these constructions appear depending on the water level. I'm getting more and more interested in their foundations, what do they stand on? Their spacing and repeating patterns. I've started researching concrete as a material to work with.

autumn

not much depth. colours between grey and blue. no wind. an unusually quiet day.

nature looking back!!

It's autumn and the animals are moving in. Tried to convince the mouse that life underneath the sofa was good but life out in the open was even better. Not sure I managed. He sat in his little box chewing on a piece of cheese while we cycled to the beach. I'm enjoying myself here on the coast, the wildlife is fantastic.

sketchbook, again

Now I'm in the middle of developing a proposal for one of the spaces here at ASP. A structure greeting you as you enter the building, translating the angles from piers and jetties on the coast into a maze of triangular shapes. Having been to Tipner, the colours left a strong impression. Started mixing a colour range that I'd like to try out - a very light faded blue, a rusty orange-brown, a greenish blue-grey. Might apply colours onto the walls as an extension of the actual threedimensional lines.
