These projects may be exactly what you are looking for. They could also
be seen as triggers for you to create a 'tailor' made project in collaboration
with us for your workplace, home or a public area.
The experience of commissioning your own artwork or interactive
project is an exciting and rewarding experience - Much less expensive than you
might anticipate.
Please take the time to view our Commissions page and create a work that truly reflects you.
Perspectrum is a democratic, participatory series of paintings that invites the viewer to interact and contribute information to be added to and sustain the existing work.
The information that each participant contributes relates to the imagined colour and hue of mood throughout the twelve month period of a typical year.
Each canvas is a representation of the information provided and so becomes a tonal portrait of each individual.
The resulting 28 x 32cm painting (in oil and beeswax) is the artist's objective view of the given details. View examples of completed perspectrum paintings.
These paintings are generally exhibited as a group but have equal value and timbre when viewed as an individual portrait.
The information is submitted on a standard form - some participants write their feelings and colours while others use both descriptive prose and colour - using coloured pencils, pens or any other media that they feel most comfortable with.
The benefit to an office environment your home or a public space rests in the unique emotional intensity of each portrait tempered by the compelling overall spectacle of the group of paintings. The public anonymity of each participant is recommended to more accurately represent a unified team or 'crowd'.
The varied and surprising colour combinations and compositional idiosyncrasies of these paintings are entirely due to the individual complexities of those who take part in the project.
"My role is to objectively apply the specified colour and brushwork without complication - in a relaxed and open-minded manner"
