Sydney Contemporary with PAULNACHE 2017

I constructed a large 300cm x 500cm painting loosely based on the Fibonacci Grid, with sequences of squares spiralled in decreasing size. It was important at such a significant event in the wide spaces of Carriageworks to create a bright, immersive work that would drawn the audience in from observing the overall to also examine the detail. Sydney Contemporary 2017 was a major and successful step in presenting at an international level.
