“These monochromatic landscapes are part of a new series of work by Simon Schofield emerging from his long-standing technology-arts practice. Schofield’s images present us with mesmerising expanses of texture brought together using a unique set of photographic, drawing, and technological processes. In these images, many hundreds of samples are made from nature, then carefully re-configured to create the final image, which may, in its final form, contain tens of thousands of montaged elements.
The intention is to create textural expanses possessing the same qualities of complexity, chance and surprise as seen in true nature, but also contain the battle for artistic control and expression. This balance between the independent vitality of the media and the artists desire of expression forms an important dynamic within this work. Each piece goes through a long cycle of modification and adjustment until this struggle comes to rest.”
