Loomings is a new project by artist David Ogle harnessing the drama of remote landscapes as he produces artworks that call attention to their own environments.
About
With deep routed associations in the history of painting and in particular, the Romantic movement, Ogle considers his place within the natural landscape.
Developed from Ogle’s previous indoor site-responsive light works and drawings, Loomings encapsulates the artist’s ambition to escape the built environment and the confines of walls, floors and ceilings. Exploring notions of materiality, permanence and the perception of objects in space, Ogle uses light and space as a sculptural medium, creating innately ephemeral work, as the location shapes the work but also becomes manipulated by it.
Loomings is an Arts Council England funded project and has been produced and developed by Mark Devereux Projects with photography and videography by Andrew Brooks. David Ogle is represented by Mark Devereux Projects.
