The conceptual framework for this body of work is a collection on vessels I have created from my diversified art practices.
The timeless vessel form is a hollow receptacle, used for the storage of liquids, food and objects.
The ‘vessel form’ offers a blank canvas to apply stimulating variations of colour, the application of marks, to experiment with different mediums, textual patterns and various forms of decorations, to disguise, wrap, cut away and to visually record conceptual artistic impressions and metaphorical meanings.
The ’vessel form’ has expanded beyond its traditional function to become a contemporary, conceptual, sculptural, expressive art form.
