Utopia for Practical Purposes
My drawings evolved from direct and indirect observation containing a lexicon of plausible catastrophic imagery: serious yet wry; hybrids, looming signposts, rickety constructions, urban and rural wasteland, flashing beacons and anatomical and botanical form. It's a world of reanimation tossed with the Age of the 70's Rock On concert.
Preliminary drawings for large scale wall drawing installations are carefully planned out digitally before they are carried out on location. Recent large scale wall installations are based on drawings from the multiple series Utopia for Practical Purposes.
