Ideas percolating … 📡 enjoying this little creative womb … Surrounded by colour therapy 🟢🟠🔵

Creativity… I’ve be been thinking a lot about where creativity comes from … I feel like there’s just a big cloud of infinite expansive creative energy sending pulses out for us ,, kinda like a wave we can catch at any moment. And if we tune our antennas, we can channel it and express what wants to express from our own unique perspective? First image is a little graphic I made , the rest are snaps from my current creative cocoon that’s being lead by a fixation on colour and composition. ✅🧡🌊 #keepingitsimple

Colour fixation :: I think I’ve spent the last year completely fixated on this colour pallet .. immersing and surrounding myself with it. I can see it’s starting to birth itself in my work. In a little creative cocoon, testing some small scale pieces for some larger ideas No timeline here First image is a little graphic I made and the rest are snaps of said colour obsession infiltrating my life 🥰

My little light friends ✨ This is a close up of the sculptures I built for sentient, an immersive light installation I co created this year. All made from repurposed and recycled materials. It’s pretty beautiful seeing something like old soil wells from a testing lab have new life breathed in to them. I’ll never not be fascinated by making unnatural things feel like they came from nature too. Whenever I look at this, I’m reminded of gentle waves lapping against the shore , or a soft breeze delicately moving leaves on a tree —- what do you see? Thank you @isaac_ldvj for helping me piece these together & @samueljamesneil for the very cool moving picture at the end of this reel 🙃 #meditation

SENTIENT Some behind the scenes footage from ‘sentient’ , an immersive light installation I created with the help of some very talented friends. I don’t have much footage from the event but here’s a lil snippet from one of evenings installing in the lead up to the show. We had so much fun on this particular night, sitting and playing our favourite songs through the interface and watching the vibrations sync up with this living , breathing , sentient light spaceship we had created. I’m really grateful to have worked with such a kind and collaborative team to bring this idea to fruition. Couldn’t have made it with you (especially the lighting wizard that is @isaac_ldvj, you’re a genius) Thank you @isaac_ldvj @emergence.collective @ventspace___ @julianfdarcy @trodolan Music playing : Nils Frahm
