The beginning of this epic four part series, started with a diptych of a pyramid way back in 2016. I put it aside as I couldn’t make the piece work. It continued to expand ,however ,as I added two more pieces of paper to the diptych. Then the four original pieces of paper, became sixteen , as the piece grew. I concluded that the subject was a lot larger, than I had originally thought.
“The Four sisters series” is probably the largest work I have completed ,and had been very complex. To work at this scale and have the work all be related was a nightmare of epic proportions. It felt like I was corralling chaos. I would like to see them displayed in a purpose built room, one on each wall, with the entrance between the first and fourth sister.
“First Sister’s” narrative is dominated by the huge white shape that explodes. I got interested in an image of a black hole and a new theory to explain them. As well as sucking in matter , black holes may also birth ,new parts of the universe ,by spewing out matter. The first panel is the chaos, that maybe the black hole comes from.
