Series 1 was built from the mainsails of the Fowey River Dinghies — direct observation, stripped back to structure, proportion and colour. Series 2 applies the same process to a different sail. The spinnaker is fuller, faster, built for downwind speed. Where the mainsail holds its shape, the spinnaker fills with air — and the geometry changes with it.
Twelve new works. Same discipline, different energy.
The print as object
Series 2 also changes what the finished work is.
In Series 1, the print sat within a frame. In Series 2, the print and the frame become one thing. The artwork bleeds edge to edge — no border, no mount, no visual pause where the paper ends. The frame is colour-matched to the work and continues where the print stops.
The frame isn't presentation. It's the final element of the composition. On the wall, each piece reads as a single, continuous object.
Where it stands
The twelve designs are complete. Framing and finishing are being resolved now, ahead of the mid September launch.
