At the Edge
My final year project has concerned itself with the process of wear and the erosion of the ground on which I walk, and at the same time, the wearing down of my own body.
This is shown by various interpretations of the underfoot in print and in three dimensions – the latter particularly in the form of plaster, jesmonite and bronze tiles which are cast from alginate impressions of that much trodden ground. The tiles are not finely finished thus echoing the reciprocal attrition between body and ground.
The attention to the surface underfoot and the edges and gaps that are ubiquitous in those surfaces have long occupied my imagination and the present suite of images and objects really only constitute a stage in a study which will continue to evolve.
