Experiments

Multimedia experiments in image, video, and sound from the frontman of that alt. Indie one hit wonder, Blue Clocks Green.

A portfolio of restless experimentation

I explore where painting, video, and audio collide, documenting the glitches, echoes, and accidents along the way.

A sleek, dark wood worktable covered with a carefully curated selection of medium-sized artworks laid flat: abstract paintings, graphic ink drawings, and small experimental pieces that echo 1980s synth-pop visual language through restrained neon accents and rhythmic patterns. A vintage pair of studio headphones and a discrete, modern audio interface sit among the artworks, hinting at audio and video integration without dominating the scene. Overhead softbox lighting casts even, studio-quality illumination, bringing out rich textures and colors. Shot from a slightly elevated angle with a clean, photographic realism, the composition uses the rule of thirds to lead the eye across the portfolio, creating a calm, sophisticated atmosphere that communicates a space for artistic experimentation.
A minimalist gallery wall in a dim, intimate exhibition space displaying a single, large-format framed print from the art portfolio, its imagery subtly referencing 80s band poster design through refined typography-like shapes and rhythmic lines, but without any actual readable text. The frame is thin, matte black metal, floating slightly off the wall. A focused, warm spotlight from above creates a luminous halo around the artwork, with soft shadows slipping down the textured plaster wall. The surrounding environment falls into gentle darkness, with only the faint outline of a bench and floor visible. Photographed straight-on with perfect symmetry and sharp focus throughout, the atmosphere is contemplative, refined, and cinematic, positioning the artist’s identity and work as central and iconic.
A close-up photographic study of a textured sketchbook spread lying open on a black matte desk surface, filled with intricate, hand-drawn visual explorations inspired by Blue Clocks Green era aesthetics: angular abstract forms, waveform-like patterns, and restrained color swatches in teal, electric blue, and muted magenta. A fine-line pen and a small pile of color test strips rest nearby. A laptop is partially visible at the frame’s edge, its screen softly glowing with a blurred video timeline, suggesting integration of audio and video experiments. Cool, directional desk-lamp lighting brushes across the paper, highlighting the tooth of the page and the depth of the ink. Captured from a very close, angled overhead perspective with shallow depth of field, the mood is intimate, cerebral, and process-focused.
A dark, atmospheric studio corner featuring a large, vertically oriented digital display mounted on a charcoal wall, showing a high-resolution photograph of one of the artist’s more experimental pieces—an abstract composition with subtle nods to 80s synth textures and album art sensibilities. Surrounding the screen, a few physical prints of the same work are taped with artist’s masking tape, slightly curled at the edges, emphasizing the portfolio’s hybrid digital-physical nature. A compact, modern speaker and a small, unobtrusive camera sit on a floating shelf below, implying support for embedded audio and video without explicit branding. A single cool spotlight from above creates dramatic contrasts, with precise reflections on the display and deep, soft-edged shadows. Shot from a three-quarter angle, the composition feels sophisticated, cinematic, and quietly experimental.
A carefully lit still life of a stack of large-format art portfolio boxes on a low, matte black plinth, each box wrapped in textured, off-black paper with a subtle, debossed abstract symbol that hints at the artist’s identity without forming readable text. One box lies open, revealing a spill of richly colored prints that echo 80s new wave visual language through geometric rhythm and atmospheric gradients. A coil of audio cable and a slim external drive rest beside the plinth, suggesting a deep archive of visual and sonic experiments. Gentle, diffused side lighting from the left creates refined highlights on the paper textures and soft shadows on the seamless dark backdrop. Photographed with a slightly elevated angle and crisp focus, the mood is archival, sophisticated, and quietly dramatic.
An ultra-clean, modern desktop layout designed to visualize the art portfolio website itself: a large, frameless monitor on a pale wood desk displays a sophisticated grid of artwork thumbnails, each a different experimental piece, subtly influenced by 80s art-pop aesthetics in color and composition. Beside the monitor, a high-quality audio interface and a compact studio monitor speaker imply embedded sound and video capabilities. Soft, cool daylight from a nearby window illuminates the scene, producing faint reflections on the screen and minimal shadows. The background is tastefully blurred, with hints of acoustic panels and stacked canvases. Shot straight-on at eye level with photographic realism and balanced composition, the mood is polished, focused, and quietly futuristic, underscoring the site as a living laboratory for the artist’s evolving portfolio.

A meticulously arranged studio shot of a large canvas leaning against a clean white gallery wall, covered in bold, experimental mixed-media artwork that hints at 1980s new wave album aesthetics through geometric shapes, muted neons, and textured paint layers. The canvas rests on a slightly scuffed concrete floor with paint-splattered drop cloths nearby, suggesting active experimentation. Soft, diffused daylight from an unseen high window washes across the surface, revealing subtle gloss and matte contrasts in the materials. The mood is sophisticated and introspective, inviting close inspection. Photographed at eye level with a slightly off-center composition and shallow depth of field, the artwork is in sharp focus while the minimalist background gently blurs, emphasizing this as a portfolio-defining hero piece.
