CONCEPT
Untitled is an experimental 'heavenly' sculptural installation - a naturally kinetic field of allium-like structures.

Semi-transparent spheres of differing sizes are painstakingly made by fusing pure white tile spacers to household brush bristles, which project out from white foam packaging cores. These are perched on top of quivering glass-fibre rods, rising up at varying heights up to 5 metres from the gallery floor.

On viewing the installation, both by day and when lit up at night, the viewer is enticed into investigating the space further by negotiating an eclectic path through its ethereal white landscape of forms. They are immediately struck by a peaceful meditative atmosphere - not unlike the in-between state captured within the mood of a film or a musical soundscape.

Untitled forces us to stop and reflect. It provokes us to appreciate purity and beauty, and to form a relationship with the structures, which move gently in response to wind and movement, enabling us to escape the everyday stresses we encounter when negotiating the world around us.

WHITE
The colour white is integral to making up Untitled's 'heavenly' atmosphere. Like a painter would use white paint splashes to play with light, shadow and movement, Untitled uses white to play with these elements in a three-dimensional way.

The 'colourless' colour white is usually incorporated into everyday familiar objects that form the backdrop to our lives. Tile-spacers, A4 paper, receipts, plastic coffee cups, salt, snow and clouds, for example, are white objects or elements that we take for granted. In some ways they represent a certain 'nothingness' in their normal context, however in Untitled they are transformed.

SITE-SPECIFIC
This proposed site-specific commission would enable me to expand and develop my first Untitled installation of 18 kinetic structures, which was shown in a solo exhibition at a London contemporary gallery called Space Station 65 last year. Untitled is tried and tested, in terms of its method of construction, durability and its positive reaction from the public.
