This exhibition features a series of drawings inspired by an installation exhibition by Pauline Rhodes at CoCa in mid 2005. I was fascinated by the details in Rhodes' installation and asked her permission to photograph the work. I used a computer to manipulate the photographswhich then became a basis for the drawings which are a response to the changing elements, creating many more new connections.
The exhibition will take place in the Front Gallery at CoCa (Centre of Contemporary Art) Christchurch, from 18 January - 12 February 2006
