Beneficially Detrimental

Oxymoron [ox·y·mo·ron] n.pl.  A phrase in which two words of contradictory meaning are used together for special effect, for example, “wise fool” or “to make haste slowly.”

Beneficially detrimental.
Yesterday was the Private View for the Bargate Exhibition, It went well even if it was a lot of work. Im glad it is over now as i feel full focus and finally return to the FMP. I have been thinking further of my idea for man and machine, I think I want to take up an idea I once pursued in the previous project and create drawings of body part/organs/cells to represent the body, I think as I progress with these illustrations I shall hopefully stumble across something else; lots of ideas are swimming around and I feel I am just waiting for them to collide. I also think I may do the same with mechanical parts constructions that perhaps mirror or have similarities to the human form and hopefully I will learn something in this process.
During the setting up for the exhibition I was asked to create a large circle piece by Jonny; it was larger than any piece I have created before with my illustrations and made me want to pursue my designs on a larger scale, I had always thought about this before but now I have actually carried out the process and to a degree of success and satisfaction has made me more motivated to achieve this once again. 



Some images of my piece.
