(Weight: 3.5kg) As with the 2nd piece shown in this post, I am working towards ‘double sided’ pieces where the work can be viewed as a whole. I have worked on several iterations of this using the ‘honeycomb’ cardboard (as shown above) but so far i’ve struggled to make a piece that feels balanced and coherent. In trying to make a material work I think I have ‘forced’ the piece rather than allowing the experimental element to guide the making process. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65e87da929db6353ffda5260/5eb34ccf-9483-4f66-a15e-3e510efe5974/LeftSideOnPlant.jpg Journal - Some thoughts on experiments - Make it stand out Untitled, jesmonite, cardboard & staples, 28.7cm x 23.7cm x 19.8cm. (Weight: 3.4kg) This series of work not only started out very small (fitting into the palm of my hand) but also began life as something else entirely. It has now combined with a different idea, based around producing work with no discernible front or back, something that the viewer can walk around and see from different angles. Compared to some of my other works made from plaster and cardboard, this piece is relatively light owing to a hollow interior with the jesmonite front and edges having a depth of around 1.5cm. I am also posting the images here with propensity in mind. I’m going to work more on this piece which will hopefully make it more complete and not completely ruined. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65e87da929db6353ffda5260/10218155-ece9-4b3d-8386-9c7c8fee4672/IMG_2614.jpg Journal - Some thoughts on experiments - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65e87da929db6353ffda5260/d6c696d9-52e2-4cab-9bd2-8328a12fa4fb/LinesFull+.jpg Journal - Some thoughts on experiments - Make it stand out Untitled, plaster & cardboard, 26.5cm x 21.7cm x 6cm. (Weight: 2.9kg) This piece is not exactly a new experiment since I have been making these graphic, strictly linear works for a while. I work into most of my other pieces after they have been cast but with these pieces I am trying to create something simpler, neater and more defined. I rarely think of my work in a domestic setting but I think the repetition of the lines and the way they react to light and shadow give the pieces a meditative and contemplative quality. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65e87da929db6353ffda5260/1b2223fa-0b2b-464f-938e-9a8f5f6e8b0e/BoxSideOn.jpg Journal - Some thoughts on experiments - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65e87da929db6353ffda5260/9c3ec354-df30-40e4-8eb2-0b8879e48695/WallSideRight.jpg Journal - Some thoughts on experiments - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.danielgent.art/blog/recent-work monthly 0.5 2025-04-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65e87da929db6353ffda5260/0dd932ab-c67d-46de-8043-7fbc7527ed72/LongerGroup.jpg Journal - Working with resin - Left (Untitled), bronze and polyester resin, 31.6cm x 9.4cm x 1cm Centre (Untitled), iron and polyester resin, 31.5cm x 9.3cm x 1xm Right (Untitled), Jesmonite and cardbaord, 32cm x 9.5cm x 1.5cm Left (Untitled), bronze and polyester resin, 31.6cm x 9.4cm x 1cm Centre (Untitled), iron and polyester resin, 31.5cm x 9.3cm x 1cm Right (Untitled), jesmonite and cardboard, 32cm x 9.5cm x 1.5cm https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65e87da929db6353ffda5260/848b811e-e308-43b3-8e99-d76f52c77f09/Comparison+.jpg Journal - Working with resin - Make it stand out Comparing the same areas of the two pieces, looking at how each mark and break down differently. There is an almost iridescent quality to some areas of the bronze piece which changes in different light conditions. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65e87da929db6353ffda5260/5c81c41a-89b5-45e1-9ece-aeea34334cfd/PairProgress.jpg Journal - Working with resin - Make it stand out First spray with salt water solution. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65e87da929db6353ffda5260/6164f5d4-a676-4a85-92b6-130b06adfc96/CloseUpIron.jpg Journal - Working with resin - Make it stand out Detail of the iron piece, the rusting is a little more subtle compared to other sections. The rusting against the ash and black colour is really striking. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65e87da929db6353ffda5260/801c8700-ed73-4881-b7a3-013f111c67b0/ThreeInLight.jpg Journal - Working with resin - Make it stand out The pieces are wall mounted which gives them a slightly quasi-religious feel hung on a stark white wall. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65e87da929db6353ffda5260/c8c46d9b-f6d3-451b-8202-5657ed481de3/CloseBronze.jpg Journal - Working with resin - Make it stand out Detail of the bronze piece (with small dog hair).
