Nigel Ash
The sources of ideas for my work are varied and include the geometries of architecture, the forms of geological features, crystals and fossils and the technological imaginings of fantasy and science fiction. I hope to elicit associations with geological, biological and technological fragments and evoke impressions of past technology and historical artefacts, such as ritual objects.
I hope this may trigger memories of sensations, images and artefacts from the amalgam of memories and impressions formed from filtering perceptions of the world and the stream of mass information we receive.
Through this experience, I hope viewers may be reminded of things, even though they may be uncertain of how the objects can be ‘read’ or identified explicitly.
