Over the past week I have been experimenting with the idea of utopia's and construction, both in 3D and 2D. I have also been experimenting with different and new ways of applying paint to my work to try and make it more exciting and explore new possibilities that I am curious of.


I have came across work by the artist Damian Ortega, who's work explores aesthetic and cultural situations through sculpture and installation. I am particularly interested in the piece 'Constructivist Failures' series, 2005. The wooden structures have distinctive constructivist qualities, and although the piece is built up of only straight edges it creates a very confusing and intimidating image upon the viewers eye. It almost reminds me of optical illusions.
