Twister was created entirely in tape, using Haru stuck-on design, it covered the walls, floor and horizontal surface areas of the gallery space, to surround the on-looker in a powerful and developing vortex. This is art that swirls around you, placing you, the viewer, at the centre of its focus, hinting that you - in fact - might also be its subject.
Writing about Twister the artist said, 'The artwork is intended to pull you into the design. It plays with the unique office environment allowing the viewer to step into the centre as it twists around the surfaces of the room. Although it equally makes a strong visual impact from a distance. The diagonal clusters of triangles are meticulously measured to form a tight wave of colour.'
Fiona Grady is one of a select group of artists starting to work with Haru stuck-on design tape at Haru Art. It's part of a new venture that encourages people to commission high quality, temporary artworks. Since collaborating with Haru, Grady has created installations for a number of clients' homes and the windows of Heal's, Tottenham Court Road.
