Suprematism

Malevich; the creator of Suprematism favoured non objective and abstract art and used a lot of pure geometric forms in his work. He was a founder and a teacher of his movement.

The revolution in Russia, saw Malevich turn his Suprematism into UNOVIS (Supporters of the new art) it was basically a revolt against; new society meant new art. The war years saw the avant garde of abstraction in art, modernisation.

Other Russian artists turned to Constructivism in 1913, also wanting to make revolutionary art they wanted to literally 'construct' art, and were interested in the analysis of materials and the actual form of the work. They wanted to modernise the process by introducing mass production.

Mass production is an important aspect in my work because a lot of the work I make and the paintings I produce are very ready to be either screen printed or digitally made because of the simple colours and shapes. I wanted to bring through the idea of mass production when creating series' os my work I also find it easier to plan if I can draw a few ideas with the same concept consecutevily.

I have always liked the idea of pieces within my work fitting together which is why I find this movement so exciting. My work always contains fragments and some sort of jigsaw qualities; reading into this art movement has encouraged me to further produce the work I love.
