Brian D Hodgson recreates and draws on the ongoing processes and forces that transform our environment, both natural and human-made, over time. He integrates this practice, himself, and his personal psychology with that environment and resulting work. It is psycho-navigational: a way of finding his location and direction; a means of survival. The work is hand drawn into grounded copper etching plates entirely on location over days; projects sometimes span years, of exploring and revisiting. While incorporating drawing, outcomes are influenced by environmental factors. Human exposure to weather whilst drawing is a factor; the plates and the images they carry are also exposed directly to erosion, attrition and corrasion. Self-integration with environments over time, drawing, and the erosive processes Brian uses, together produce artworks that consider the meaning of an individual’s actions and their finite time and space, within the vastness of existence.
