Enjoying available materials. Applying gesso with gusto is a ‘secret’ pleasure. The physicality inspires. Drawing with a paint marker, indeed a pen of any kind, is pure bliss. Peeling back the surface layer of the corrugated paper board reminded me of my year, as a sixteen year old, working in a (then) local paper board mill as an apprentice lab technician. Good memories!

So, there we have it, my Artweeks installation is complete. I had planned to post the summary views one per day, this week. But, I now have other things to do, and this forced my hand, so they are all here posted today. In addition, here is another view to summarise the summary. This one image overview is a boon for the lazy viewer! To finish, (I must say) this has been a very enjoyable project. A project where I have created many new outcomes and ideas for continued pursuit. Watch out for derivative outcomes as time passes by. Open edition prints are, of course, available from the usual source:

A seventh iteration, is currently installed at: artweeks This space will continue to change between now and the Oxfordshire Artweeks 2022 40th anniversary festival in May.
My first complete virtual installation of 2022 can now be viewed via: artweeks . I will be using this REVAD CODEDIMAGES space for my ARTWEEKS 2022 portfolio in May. Between now and then, installations may come and go, without warning. Enjoy them while they exist. Everything is transient.
Outcomes from the SIXzz RYB exploration span both the virtual and real worlds, with pure digital outcomes and fusion outcomes. The fusion outcomes mix print and hand drawn marker pen. These outcomes are presented as three collections of five outcomes bound together with hand made construction notes.
A diptych of 12 x 16 inch Chromaluxe die sublimation prints, on aluminium. These should be presented in the same space, but not necessarily side-by-side. Here they are installed near a corner in the room. Opposite walls would make a visual connection across the room.
A triptych of 12 x 16 inch Chromaluxe die sublimation prints, on aluminium with subframe. Presented here as individual outcomes. Ideally, these would be presented together side-by-side.
A triptych of 12 x 16 inch plywood art panels with subframe. Shown installed individually and exhibited as a triptych for a group exhibition in 2016.
I am honoured to have my FOR COVIMETRY outcomes represented in this exhibition in Poland. The project is curated by Mark Starel. This recording was made for a Polish TV channel. To have my online animation featured, both in the exhibition and this recording, has made for a pleasant end to a challenging year.

The face mask is used here as a symbol of our times. No masks are being sewn and none coloured by these outcomes. The mask outline is an artistic device and nothing more.
