Michael Wesley - Vanishing and Emerging Presence

It's taken me almost three years to hunt down the person who took these 3 year exposures of buildings being constructed in New York and Germany. When describing them to my housemate he promptly popped them up on his screen within minutes. It turns out the photographer in question is a certain Michael Wesley, and that I am appalling at searching for things on the internet...

Foundation Workings

Here's some early work that I completed in my Foundation Diploma at Maidstone UCA. I was very interested in mechanical objects at the time and got these car parts from a local scrap yard. I used the oil, grease and general "gunk" from within these objects to aid my charcoal still life drawings of them. In some cases I experimented with combining these materials with others like acrylic paint or the bronze substance in the picture immediately below which I found whilst rummaging through my dad's garage.

Summer Work

I work at an engineering company when not at University, as a result I have had the chance to become accustomed to using the program AutoCAD that all engineering drawings are completed on. Aside from all the 2D working drawings I produce I have also created a number of jobs in 3D using the same program. The images below are from a job completed by a friend and myself as a proposal to the client. The building will soon be under construction and is to become a wedding venue.
