Nigel Peake and Peter Halley

Often when looking at other artists practice that have links to your own, in attempts to develop and assimilate your ideas, the individual practices of the artists themselves can be so diverse...

Recently, I have been looking at the architectural drawings of Nigel Peake.  Peake illustrates architectural structures and maps in detailed, sensitive and laborious drawings that often appear similar to patchwork or stitching from afar.  In opposition, the boldly coloured paintings, installations and prints of Peter Halley reference the geometric shapes and portals of the interface, and the overworked, colourful, gaiety of digital Internet design.  Enjoy ..
