Stolen Geometry from the Gardens of Love

5 - 29 May 2010
‘There is geometry in the humming of the strings, there is music in the spacing of the spheres.’
-- Pythagoras

For several years my work has been concerned with issues of identity, documentation and dis- placement, with pattern and geometry being the primary visual focus.

There is a universality of pattern applied cross-culturally to both public and private space to per- sonalise, provide human scale and divide the immense into measurable portions.

Inspired by the patterns in oriental carpets, screens, textiles, mosaics and gardens, the works in this exhibition are an examination of inclusion and exclusion, the use of pattern for mapping and delineating ownership either by drawing a border or applying personal decoration to signify that the space is one’s own.
