Diffusion #1 - test
Experimental piece in progress. I never consciously intended to make something like this. It seemed to evolve from no where. I was considering weaving the wire, but it coiled up, and I continued the looping and attaching it randomly. I decided I’d apply colour, and subliminally I picked blue and red. And today when I photographed the piece, I saw it with fresh eyes. I think it’s grown from my subconscious. Worrying about the asbestosis in Paul’s lungs, and the diffusion of oxygen into his blood? Its a mystery otherwise.
I just tried wetting it to see if I could get the colour to run, but its acrylic paint. I think i’ll try to encourage the rusting process, it may represent damage to the lining of the lungs.
