Linda Hughes
"I develop ideas where a dynamic optical illusion elicits a 3D effect from a flat surface within the clear linearity of stripes. Surface lines arise and subsume back within the shape and the mobility of a pendant, reinforcing the illusion of 3D. The stripe is a device of agitation, unfailingly capturing attention. Stripes are the small nervous strokes of the brush within a composition – a restlessness where the surface is never still.
For me, the interplay of line, stripe and form builds a narrative which parallels the historical use of stripe motifs in Renaissance painting. The use of the stripe to allude to theatres beyond the canvas incites the design language within my work. My jewellery seeks to take the dramas and comedies of the world about me and cast them anew in the personal space of body adornment."
