'Tension ' 2011
Tension is something that is felt and not seen. Here I have used text to create a ball of tension in the atmosphere.
Artist's notes
This work was developed from an enquiry into text and was inspired by a rapid angrily scribbled drawing of a sphere that reminded me of the word 'Tension' which is often felt and seems to hang in the atmosphere. The work demands close scrutiny by the viewer to ascertain its true make up.
