While the eye loves pattern, it loves the breaks in pattern more. This work began with Kirra foraging for colour on her studio floor. The vinyl offcuts, the negative spaces left from previous, more representational works, were found fresh and arranged into abstract working collages. These became templates, fixed to the paper ground or held temporarily with tape to permit reassembly. Using a layering of stencils, rather than exposing one image to the screen, Kirra printed these during her 3-week residence at Harvest Workroom (her first screen-printing experience). Minor errors and shiftings were allowed to take place between the multiples, and their uniqueness seems harder won when it is barely apparent. Each print has over eight colours: Kirra has colour in her bones!
