Plants and Wires
Megan Faye October 2007
This exhibition is comprised of new drawings and paintings
inspired by electrical circuits and natural forms. They explore the structures
of plants, flowers and trees; juxtaposed with wallpaper designs and patterns
from the insides of envelopes.
I grew up in Freehold and, as the Britannia 101 is my local
pub, it is a privilege to be exhibiting here.
About Megan
I graduated from the Sculpture department of the Glasgow
School of Art in 2006. During this time I experimented with using digital media
both as a tool and sculpturally. Following my degree I briefly worked in
Floristry. It was quite an extreme contrast to move from using wiring and very
modern technology to working with natural materials and basic manual tools. This
contrast is something that really appeals to me; in fact one of the major themes
I explore is that of the relationship between nature and manufacture.
Within my practice I work with many different media. Although
this means I produce a variety of visual styles I feel that my works are united
by consistency in the themes I choose to pursue.
Other than the drawing and painting exhibited here I am also
currently working in animation and music video.
Thank you for viewing my work.
