Artist Statement
The Title of our work is Bloom:
Bloom – the beauty and devastation brought on by introducing a single new element to a closed system. Rapid and excessive growth upsets the established order, creating impact at scale and generating iterative re-adjustment.
In this work, Masonik explores the de-stabilising impact of unchecked growth whether it is cultural change, landscape, or structure. At times slow and creeping, subtle and cyclic, or abrupt and chaotic, Bloom is a simple appreciation for pattern, devoid of judgement beyond the aesthetic for the far reaching changes on ‘systems out of balance’.
Masonik’s latest work is an exploration of what happens when you allow one element to bloom.
