This series has taken form during the Covid-19 lockdown period when restrictions to our movements have called for establishing new ways of working and structuring artistic output. This work denotes a process of inscribing and re-inscribing thought through automatic drawing with ink on paper, indigo pigment on fabric, performance to camera, layering and overlaying.
All titles of the project are taken from the 12 stages in the indigo dyeing process. These are as follows: Blue of Nothingness, A Hint of Blue, Milky Blue, Lively Blue, Azure Blue, Blue of the Horizon, Ultramarine, Assertive Blue, The Divine Sky, Light Divine Sky,
An early iteration of work that was yet to be fully realised or even imagined where the studio had to stand in for landscape and landscape has been reconstituted.
