Site Guide


 

This site’ consists of two interlinked Sections; featuring articles, essays, many Scroll down thumbnail Galleries (with up to 3 levels of enlargement), together with photosets documenting previous projects and shows. DC.com features Works, from 1983 to the present.  Everything is laid out in a clear and logical fashion on a cascade of indices, all interlinked for ease of use. The beauty of this ‘Sectional’ system is that you may see as much or as little as you wish.

 

 

 
On The Sections

 

1. The Presentation

 

The first Section of the site is an Artists presentation. This is a set of pages intended to be a Presentation of my Work to those who view my Work for the First time, or who want quick overall guides to it. If you would like to start here, at the top’ - as it were, please   Click  - The Presentation - on the Opening Index. This will take you to the ‘Presentation Index’ - [each section has it’s own main index].  All the articles here are fully cross-referenced.

 

If you choose to follow these articles in index order ‘as a presentation’, you would start with the brief introduction -  In person - The Artists life and work,  a short Biography, putting the Works in a context.

 

The second Article is The Presentation Gallery a ‘stitch in time’ guide to the contents of the  Thematic Galleries [See also below] in Section 2.

 

The next presentation is a short Critical CV giving details of my major projects since 1999.

 

Following that ‘On Practice and presentation’ is an essay concerning aspects of my Working practice and the project of my Works: ‘Elementalism’.

 

 After which comes the shorter essay  ‘On Edition and Originality’ - my attitude as a printmaker to the Art Object, as an idea and it’s material consequence. There then follows the ICV, the Longer Illustrated CV giving a more detailed picture of my Working life, fully linked across the site month by month since 1999.

 

The last two items are the Artists Statement:  ‘Elementalism is…’ and ‘New British OP’ respectively a technical statement of Elementalism, the ‘project’ and a list of those Artist who are my inspiration, my ‘Homage to influence’.
