Artist’s notes: An increase in scale takes previous ideas into more simplified constructions, still exploring line, tone and shallow ambiguous space. An important invention is the central perspex connector of three planes, which becomes a focal point in the work. Slotted into a base, these still parallel planes are now angled in space introducing a new dynamism.
