Renovation, 2023
Ink on paper, 42 x 59cm
I had been thinking about a drawing literalizing a headspace, and about internal landscapes, and the sorts of ways I could portray big mental changes. I really enjoyed thinking about the inside of my brain as if it were Gormenghast. The result feels like a short exploration that suggests some kind of way forward, and in retrospect builds upon a disappointing drawing from the year before, Boggle Brain (pics below).

I made some boggle-shaped dice out of clay to get a more organic effect
