Stacked Breaks (The Blue Hour) and Stacked Breaks (The Golden Hour) are works from my show Compounded Fractures, 2022 at Hang Tough Contemporary, Dublin.
The pieces depict the release of tension from a pane of glass breaking. There are two layers to the pieces, the front is the initial break and the back, the same break a 100th of a second later. The titles (Stacked Breaks) reference the overlaying of these breaks as well as Monet's Hay Stack paintings. Monet's series helped inform the colour palettes as well as the concept of illustrating the elapsing of time.The artworks use the breaking of glass as a visual metaphor for the constant pressures of daily life. Parallels are drawn between our internal mental stresses and the inherent tension within glass, due to the manner of its production.
