Amy Joy Watson, Sunspots (Detail), 2024, metallic thread on brass mesh with brass frame, 78 x 108.5 cm. Photography by Andy Nowell.

In creating the embroidered tarnished brass mesh works for Until Sunbeams Find You, Amy Joy Watson continues to develop her own visual language of weaving metallic threads through surfaces to melding celestial and earthly landscapes with the play of light.

The new material direction in this body of work evolved from a happy accident in the studio, where pristine golden mesh developed a patina, inspiring Amy to experiment with developing patinas. Where she once applied watercolour washes to paper, the artist now tarnishes the brass with household acids, embracing the unpredictability of time and the elements.
