Artwork notes

Artist-wide context

Iron supports and curling details connect the structure of a building with how its rooms look and feel.

Materials, marks and colour

Artist-wide context; individual works may differ.

Media and surface

Iron, glass, stone and wood work together rather than as separate decoration.

Marks and structure

Curved supports and railings continue through rooms and stairs.

Palette and light

Daylight and reflective surfaces matter more here than a painter’s pigment palette.
