Math Bass is a non-binary artist using abstraction to convey their message. Their use of positive and negative space turn geometric shapes into mystical narratives and create an in depth experience where the positive and negative space fight for the spotlight. As the eye struggles to determine between positive and negative space it reminds us that not everything is supposed to be instantly obvious and familiar, similar to gender, there is no one way to look; females don’t owe you ‘femininity’, male people don’t owe you ‘masculinity’ and non-binary people don’t owe you androgyny.

Saw some of Dom Tivadar’s paintings at an open studio and I really loved the surface texture, I felt like it really drew the attention so much more than a regular painting. I had been thinking of using grout to create a surface texture on a canvas before painting onto it and this made me even more likely to attempt this.

This quote I found by Tschabalala Self I feel resonated quite personally with myself and my own mindset towards producing work
