Points of reflection:
Scale is an issue with the current work, or rather the scale of the paper is. The drawing shouldn't feel attached to the confines of the paper, and so by working on much larger sheets this would disassociate the drawing from the edges. Not only this, but the subsequent void around the drawing will then allow me to further explore the theme of 'ruins' in the sense that the drawing appears lost, paused on its journey into degradation.Additionally, the physicality of the work needs to be developed. It's beginning to take place in this piece somewhat with the addition of thread and stitch but further experimentation should hopefully push these pieces out of the restrictions of being a 2D image. There's an energy in the mark making and concept as a whole that an A1 sheet of paper alone cannot and should not contain.
