Tim Pulleyn
by Spacewood on Jul.10, 2010, under Glasgow, Illustration, Sculpture
“My work, at its most simplest and basic concept, is inspired by my other passion, music, but is also complimented by an interest and curiosity in Chaos Theory, where small variables in a situation can lead to systemised chaos and unpredictability / a concept where control can only be maintained until chaos makes it fall apart.”
“The drawings I create begin with specific rules which incorporate human aspects to these Computer-Aided Design-like drawings. “Lines can only be drawn once”, “If the pen stops working it cannot be fixed”, are examples of the kinds of rules I employ and experiment with. Just as to mistakes made during the process, mistakes can not be corrected and drawings can not be re-drawn.”
“My drawings are all done by hand, and many of the larger scale drawings consist of over 1000 single points and lines. My work derives from my own inability to conform with the correct etiquette and protocols of daily-life Typically unable to spell correctly, write grammatically correct, choose the best path, listen to the best idea, understand advice properly.”
I was drawn to Tim’s work the moment I saw it. The regimentality, spatial awareness, complexity and delicacy combined with the subtle gradients created from the ink cross overs are magnificent.
