Jamie Norths work interests me textural man made surfaces contrasted heavily with the organic material and shapes of the sculptural forms. Norths work sits between the two, manmade and natural. Taking inspiration from the natural world and natural form, but contrasting it with the urban world. Using industrial materials and working with multiples.
The fragmented spherical forms interest me as my spherical paper forms have a fragmented edge due to the taring and deckled edge of the paper. Noths work has helped inform as well as justify the spherical form within my work. The spherical for is seen within nature constantly and is quite representational of the natural world.
- fragmented edges
- industrial materials
- spherical form, multiples
