after krasner

“So this Krasner-inspired ‘mosaic’ is about the size of a dinner plate and was made by bashing a bunch of chunky wax crayons with a rolling pin and then setting them within the confines of a rusty metal hoop I found behind our wheelie bins. I sited the hoop and crushed crayons on a sheet of acetate, and made a deep collar of acetate around the edge of the hoop, like I was making a cheesecake. Next I mixed up a pint or so of filler and poured the whole lot over the top of the broken crayons and allowed it to dry over a few days. Off came the acetate collar and then I had this mosaicked disc. It was fun and instinctive way to embrace Krasner’s work.” (June 2025)
