It is getting ever closer to Limbo. The final exhibition for me and many others at University of Wales Trinity St David Swansea, and here are a progression images to show you what I am working on.
Visit http://www.limboexhibition.co.uk/ to have a better look at the artists we have on offer in Limbo.
Visual Expression
Jordan Thomas is an artist based in Swansea who strives to teach and bewilder through the use of multimedia experimentation and manipulation, often warping the barrier between viewer and participant through the use of space and interaction, evoking thought and providing knowledge, reaching out and giving the future to those who are willing to get their hands dirty.

Working towards the degree
Unfortunately I have not been able to update this much due to dissertations and other assignments, so here is few of the things I have been working towards;
And finally here is the beginning of Limbo. An exhibition opening on may the 23rd at UWTSD Swansea, Dynevor Campus. I hope to turn the space bellow into a Turellesque environment using colour and light to explore the phenomena of colour.

Realised it had been a bit of a while
Just a bit of documentation of some of my work, I think it illustrates some of what I am doing, while still keeping an aesthetic beauty, so I thought I should include it. |

Advancing
Chemical formation 945 - Carrying on with my ferrofluid sculptures I decided to create a mixture of colours within singular lakes of one another. I found it to create a movement and feeling within its area. I feel it tells a story in itself of horror and hope, dominated by the upper class of Purple royalty.
This image was created during my experiments with conjuring colour. I have been going through the motions of creating my own paints, choosing to start with ultramarine due to its transcendent nature. Although this pigment is the synthetic modern day pigment. As the oil was laid across it, I noticed its inspired similarities to the original pigment, Lapis Lazuli and went about documenting this image.
This is the documentation of the current progression in my exploration of colour chemistry as a response to my dissertation research. This series will eventually be moved into an exhibition room to create an installation based on the chemistry of colour, to hopefully get people to think about and understand their materials more in depth.
All of the colours within these works have been created by paint I have made myself in the studio, there is currently a royal purple and a white canvas drying to complete the series. Each colour will have its own in depth description below it in the final installation sharing my knowledge of its historical and scientific backgrounds.
