Marcus Capes
English born Capes combines graphite and enamel in his artwork which creates an interesting surface reaction along with a methodology referencing society, song titles or the abstraction of form. In a process encouraging the adage of trial and error, the artworks reference an entirely different spectrum of method, such as sculptural smooth marble or pewter. This is gained from Capes patient hand and perfectionism.
The eye catching pieces are often monochromatic, and striking in form and complexity. The compositions play with geometry, and the eye's ability to read shadow and positive and negative spatial play.
