A CLOUDBURST OF EVERYDAY OBJECTS, 2018 | pencil on paper | 630 x 500 mm
This is my second drawing based on Leonardo da Vinci’s ‘A Cloudburst of Material Possessions’, a curious sketch made c1510 depicting a downpour of the humble tools of daily life. In this homage, I use my geometric mesh technique to develop the overall tonality of the drawing – the stormy clouds, sky and sea become meshed together to reveal objects associated with our waste culture.
