A close-up study exploring the layered curves, details and surface character of this ornamental Chinese ironwork. The tightly cropped composition isolates the decorative detail from its wider setting, drawing attention to the form, craftsmanship and weathered material qualities of the original feature.
Layered applications of printed media, tissue paper and dark washes form deep tonal contrast and textured mark-making which create an almost sculptural quality, emphasising the weight and depth of the ornament.
Part of The Drawing Archive, a collection of architectural drawings, observational studies and works gathered from sketchbooks and design projects.
Printed on heavyweight 200 gsm premium matte paper with a smooth, non-reflective finish, selected to preserve the layered texture, deep shadows and material character of the original artwork.
