About the art
Artist statement
"Cast acrylic's size: 28 x 28 cm/11 x 11"".
This work consists of cut and reassembled sheets of Plexiglas. The process starts with a simple line drawing on paper, which is then transposed onto the Plexiglas. The lines are then cut to create several segments, each one with edges that can be coloured and surfaces that can be altered for effect. After painting these sections are carefully reassembled but with borders that permeate colour within the very surface of the painting. Natural light reflects off the internal painted edges to create a soft diffusion of local colour on either side, allowing each section to resonate with subtle and alternative hues.
The principal material common to every piece in Tom Henderson's work is Plexiglas. It is an extremely versatile material that possesses two qualities that inspire the work – form and light. Unlike a flat canvas, a sheet of Plexiglas is a multifaceted object that can support itself in space as well as absorb, reflect, and permeate light.
This artwork is a 4mm plexiglas fixed to Fabriano paper mounted on board."
