Designed for the blade
The dimensions of a blade create a particular drawing space. I developed the graphics around that shape, working with the surface as part of the composition. The result carries the detail of a drawing into an object made to be held and used.
Made with a specialist
A knifemaker in Australia made the knives and carried out the laser engraving. My contribution was the graphic design, prepared to fit the blades.
A starting point for other objects
An individual design can begin with a surface, a person or an occasion. The scale and material become part of the creative problem. I welcome conversations about other objects that could carry a drawing.
