GEMMA WRIGHT

ARTISTS STATEMENT

Using photography as her starting point Gemma creates digital photomontages derived from patterns within architecture. These are then transferred to silk screens utilising the photo imaging process and made into 3D forms and structures. The imagery itself often appears organic and decorative in its appearance; operating with an element of chance, the image transforms when folded. Within her practice there is a sense of a preoccupation between two dimensional and three dimensional work and their stimulus to one another. 2D prints are made into 3D objects, which are then photographed and displayed as 2D prints. Moreover there is the constant movement between photography, print and sculpture, creating an almost never ending rotation between these techniques.

Gemma's work is primarily concerned with the way art work is experienced and viewed. The use of apertures within the three dimensional work encourages the viewer to peer into the sculptures interior. In turn the structures themselves reflect the notion of interaction either by being linked, connected or paired together.

This element of experience can also be found within her two dimensional work; the prints depict the 3D forms as an ambiguous space that you can find your own way through. Often drawn in by a central point, Gemma utilises photography to create her own sense of place and a space you can enter into.
