Unlike various conventional drawing techniques, changes and edits to digital drawings can be made quickly, which easily enables the creation of many versions and layers of the same image. My ability to manipulate my medium and easily merge previously drawn disparate objects, like cars and trees, often leads me to investigate further elaborations and variations that produce previously unthought of results. This versatility and sense of freedom promotes a sense of risk free experimentation that often leads to an inquisitiveness that motivates me to push the limits of representation. Although imbued with a good measure of humour and implied optimism,The Odyssey Panorama resembles a familiar Hollywood science fiction, a Mad Max kind of world, where survivors of an apocalyptic event recycle the cast-off remnants of industrialization and prepare for an uncertain future. Technology in The Odyssey Panorama is apparent, but simplified and reduced to a personal scale in the form of renewable energy systems. By suggesting that the products of unsustainable systems be used to construct inhabitable sculptures, that is architectural art, this exhibition proposes a shift in thinking from the standpoint of the preservation and maintenance of the ecological, economic and technological status quo to the survivalist approach of preparing for an inevitable and unstoppable change.
