Organic canvas, beetroot pigment, thread, paper

Back into the swing of things i am now  attempting to harness the physicality and intervention of the elements as mediums and processes. Fire, Earth, Air and Water are the key to life itself and without each of these elements we would not exist. The work above is explorative using organic canvas from a previous project and the element of fire/heat. The embossed hexagonal patterns represent nature and its way of simplification and perfection. The burning process is immediate and destructive and a challenge to control; appropriating the loss of control experienced within the world today!!
