Exploring the potential of surface patterns as a method for communicating the sublime

The concept of the sublime is a theme that, until now, I have primarily explored through my paintings, producing large-scale, immersive works. Originally, I viewed my ‘fine art’ painting and ‘commercial’ surface pattern as two very distinct and separate endeavours; with this investigation I seek to reconcile my two practices. 

Often working in sets, I have experimented with creating works which could be reordered and adapted to the spaces in which they are placed. The idea of work which can be adaptable to various contexts remains a key concern and one which I intend to explore further throughout this investigation.
