For the last 3 months I have been resident at the British School at Rome on an Australia Council for the Arts award. I came to Rome to visit 90 churches in 90 days in order to extensively interrogate
and document the 'Cosmatesque' mosaics produced in and around the city throughout
the 12th and 13th Centuries; masterful works utilizing a language of pure
geometry to express a metaphysical cosmology, made from recycled stone gathered
from the Fori Romani. A number of Artworks have been developed as a result of these observations, they are a distillation
of both the experience of looking at these works first hand and an attempt to
integrate elements of this symbolic language of materials and geometry employed
by these 'Cosmatesque' artists into my personal lexicon. As part of the award myself and the other 6 resident artists exhibited work produced at the British School at the December Mostra (exhibition).
