my name is giddy and I have been evicted from the big brother house! The land lady did not like my poo walls. (thanks joss for this rape post)
no but seroisly My appreciation of the arts and the development
of my practice is broadly influenced by the 19 years I spent living and
studying in Hong Kong, after which I went on to pursue a four-year fine art
degree at Loughborough
University. I concentrate
on colour palette, filtering aesthetics and textures with which it may be
blended while extemporising from
numerous cultures and periods of time ;lotus designs in Chinese
porcelain, floral patterns on the pages of Tibetan manuscripts, Victorian scrap
books, Baroque and Rocco design, Byzantine artefacts and Japanese prints. Choosing to Blending past and the present,
east and west. I frequently choose to work with discarded objects, finding
satisfaction in the resuscitation of their rejected forms. Transforming
ancient and worn things into contemporary pieces can make them unique again,
transcending their original intention and their subsequent degeneration
altogether.
