Sections, lines, plans

Drawing its inspiration from the Morgan Giles boat yards technical drawings, the piece responds to the precise forms within the line plans, the midship sections, deck plans and chart house sections. Wire interpretations of the diagrams, celebrate the beauty of the marks on the page, retelling the forms created in the drawings. Areas have been in-filled with enamelled elements with details from material from the Teign Heritage archives and handwritten notes from the family and employees.
