fast track

Some progress shots of the project, things are changing really quickly. I've had to cut out the black ones with arms, and now they are becoming an extension of the "Anima/Animus" project. Hopefully it will all come into play soon. But the new drawings, which use the old drawings will be based off some of the work of Ben Tour and possibly Blaine Fontana will have some influence there.

It's really tempting to put some text on these, but I'm not too sure. Do they look finished?





These are the new ones, we'll se what happens here later in the week. Hopefully I have time to pull it all off.





I cooked up a new artist statement since "Project Arms" is now offically debunked.

These are a series of works that explore the relationships between male and female identities through the use of representation. Sourced from how each sex represents each other in their own media, these works are trying to re-evaluate the concepts of male and female identities and differences. Are we still trying to attract attention from ourselves or from each other? How does one see the other side?

Language and gesture play a large part in sexual and non sexual relationships, through the use of these; I hope to explore the differences between how each sex engages with each other.

I think it describes everything a lot better.
