New Direction



Once again at work on Mighty Grip. It was an unresolved piece. I have had some time to set it aside and new ideas popped up. I've been playing around with designs both in my sketchbook and on the board.


Given that some of my symbolism is rooted in road signs I decided to pursue that idea and create a road sign in patchwork using oil cloth. Oilcloth is shiny and slimy works as a reference to oil used in fast food cooking seemed a natural. In my original design I had the blocks oriented as squares rather than on point that was a bad plan like this much better.

Now the chains will intersect more interesting visually.
Fun with reflective tape. To be continued.
