Description
Many of us are in search of love, companionship, freedom or a search of self discovery. These journeys cannot be generalised or made into something specific by others for all people are special and different. The journey is more spiritual than physical which is what I was trying to portray in this work. In Search of is a piece of art made for the 2006 Nationwide Mercury Prize Art competition. The theme was to design something with a musical influence in an abstract or figurative manner. The female figure line drawing was unfinished until I heard about the competition. The subject matter was very interesting so I started looking for ways of showing music in physical form. I decided on using waveforms created by music and incorporating them into a composition centred around the girl. Everything else after that kind of fell into place. The piece was a winning finalist and exhibited at The Hospital gallery in Covent Garden, London.
I filmed a short video at the private exhibition's opening day, check it out here www.youtube.com/watch?v=sremfz… I'm the guy talking behind the camera.

This is brilliant work - my interpretation is that this lady is the spirit of fear. Shes running and the turbulence keeps hitting her. Very striking piece - open to conceptual intepretations
