My website (this website), an ongoing construction. An excuse to learn (html, css, a tiny bit of javascript), and
a place to put things so I can stop worrying about losing them. After that, the realisation of the new connections that
emerge from bringing into one room1 work that might not otherwise be acquainted.
Inspired by the handmade web2 movement (and constrained by my technical abilities), the website uses only basic code. Elements are included close to their most raw form with minimal styling, and simple user interactions provide a sense of reciprocity to visitors without asking them for too much. Final drawings, photographs and text sit against a wallpaper of sketches and other process work. A celebration of the making of a thing as much as the completed product, like flipping through a sketchbook. The website rewards careful looking and only functions on larger computer screens, not on mobile. It asks visitors to take some time out of their day to explore, not just a quick scroll. |
