In their latest series, Rob and Nick delved back into process-based work, focusing with fervour on colour and gesture with. They began by layering different hues of oil paint on glass sheets, repeated across 10–15 layers to create depth. The composite image was then printed onto aluminium and hand-painted with oil to enhance dimensionality and depth. Viewers are encouraged to engage in sustained observation to discern between scanned and painted colours.
