GOES WITHOUT SAYING
David Felix
9-15 October 2024
This exhibition contains a number of irregularly shaped panels, because David wanted the challenge of moving away from and out of the standard, rectangular format. A few of these works are three dimensional and more sculptural with different levels and relief.
Many of these pieces are constructed by using criss-crossed layers of reclaimed, corrugated cardboard.
This allows for the making of any desired shape and for cutting into the surface so that objects can be inserted.
Within these works lie single words - the letters of which are treated as abstract shapes.
Or else there are a number of invented letterforms that suggest writing, letterforms that give the impression of text, of script.
For the first time David is also showing pieces that complement the collage paintings - a selection of conventionally framed visual poems that have all featured globally in print publications and online.
