Under the moniker NOTPOP I produce abstract shapes paired with disruptive colours which I then wrap in bespoke frames that follow the form of the subject within. The frame then becomes an extension of the subject rather than a complimenting element.
My subjects stem from a simple shape, a doodle or inspiration from the world around. I flatten the shape to become minimal and geometric, then using bold colour choices I play on the viewer's perception by giving 2d shapes a 3d form. Any piece can be appreciated from many different angles, allowing the viewer or collector a chance to discover or rediscover new perspectives in the process. The work aims to capture a rhythm, a motion, a pattern or an illusion to find a satisfying balance within the chaos of everyday life.
