Each of these earlier works used subtle shifts in colour and movement to create a sense of flow. Despite this variation, all the individual elements were identical in size and shared the same internal pattern. Only their positioning varied, creating the illusion of transformation.
I was excited to see how I could develop this body of work and set about producing it for this show. The installation sees the introduction of new elements. For the first time, I’ve incorporated gradual changes in both the size and depth of the forms to build unity—while still using colour and positioning as I did in earlier works. Also new is an opening at the back of each piece, allowing the viewer to look inside and through the forms.
In this new work, the smallest piece sits at the centre, serving as the focal point. The three pieces on either side increase in size at a consistent rate. Colour shifts subtly as well: the centre piece features the darkest tone on its interior, which lightens gradually as it moves outward. On the external surfaces, this effect is reversed—the light tone of the centre’s outer shell deepens toward the outermost pieces, echoing the darkness at the centre’s core.
There are also subtle changes in depth and internal pattern. While each piece has the same number of internal layers, the centre piece’s layers are tightly packed and upright. As the sequence moves outward, the layers become more spaced apart and increasingly twisted. This transition creates a gentle shift from the static, compact center to the more dynamic, open outer pieces, enhancing both depth and movement. Making this work has really energised me and I can't wait to add to my Sequence series"
