A final shot for now (lol!) from the show at the @Rheged_centre until September! Such a delight to share the 2 pieces with various interested people at the PV, thank you all for engaging so much with the work!⁠

My work at the current show at the @rheged_centre

My work at the current show at the @rheged_centre is in good company!⁠
⁠
Very inspirational to see these #Matisse prints in real life⁠
⁠
"It seems to me I'm in my second life" - I can relate to that, sir!

I was very proud to be able to show this new work,

I was very proud to be able to show this new work, Phyllotaxis 2.1 at the summer exhibition at the @rheged_centre in Penrith.⁠
⁠
It has been years in the making, and I was dead chuffed at all the positive comments and feedback - lovely to meet some of the other artists at the show too.⁠
⁠
I'm doing more work like this (and others!) now as @michaeljtrew so check out my other Insta to follow along!⁠

Phyllotaxis 2.0
120x120cm paper on board

This piece is years in the making and finally made and showing at the @rheged_centre from tomorrow evening!!

The name Phyllotaxis means Seed Arrangement in Greek. I've used a simple algorithm to place points in 3d space digitally, then built pyramids on each point to create this physical representation of the beautiful sunflower seed head which its easy to ignore in daily life!

The spirals are mesmerising and complex as it uses the (most) irrational number, phi, in the construction.

I got some lovely comments about how entrancing it is in my studio so can't wait to see it at the gallery tomorrow night!

Excited to say I will be exhiting in my 3rd show in 2022 this Summer at the @Rheged_centre in Penrith! I'll be showing 2 pieces along side about 50 other contemporary paper artists, and on top of that, a selection of prints of Matisse's papercuts!

What an honour!

Matisse and Contemporary Paper Artists Rheged's summer exhibition includes Matisse: Drawing with Scissors, his late works 1950-1954, a Hayward Gallery Touring Exhibition, which features 35 lithographic prints of the famous cut-outs produced by Henri Matisse (1869-1954) in the last four years of his life.

The exhibition also features 200 artworks by 40 leading British Paper Artists including animation, origami, fashion, collage, 3d sculpture and paper cuts, many of which are for sale. The exhibition includes children's activities and a make and create area. There is also a programme of adult and family-friendly artist led workshops. (bookable in advance) Open daily 28 May - 04 September | 9am -5.30pm

Introducing one of the pieces on show from Friday $Introducing one of the pieces on show from Friday at the @rheged_centre in Penrith, for the upcoming Matisse & Contemporary Paper Artists exhibition Check out my fine art insta at @michaeljtrew for more! TETRATAXIS is a triptych that explores a very simple origami design based on a fractal pattern with a simple 45 degree twist and 50% scale factor. Then the other 2 pieces shake all that up, with angles and inspiration from fibonnaci sequences, hand folded but design using #parametric design ideas I love the idea of a mathematical idea that also looks and feels organic and also really enjoyed using the fantastic Vanguard paper with thanks to James Cropper Speciality Paper @jamescropperspecialitypaper in Marine Blue, Sunshine Yellow, and Pink at 120gsm More pics coming after the PV on Friday! #paperart #londonartist #Penrith #lakedistrict #creativity #kunst #fractal #origami #paperfolding #contemporaryart #modernart #papersculpture #artinfluencer Thanks to @stour.studios for a great space to make the work too!$

Ready to jump into another Online Origami Workshop

Ready to jump into another Online Origami Workshop - a sneaky #BehindTheScenes image here of my software setup for the multiple cameras/slides/overlays etc.

And an amazing comment from a workshop last week, "You're like the new British Bob Ross!"

What a compliment 😊🙈
