Charles Danby
Charles Danby studied at Norwich School of Art and Kingston University (BA) before graduating from the Slade (MFA) in 2002. He lives and works in London, as a curator, writer and artist, currently lectures in Fine Art at Loughborough University and is a co-founder of PROJECKT, a curatorial research partnership that broadcasts projects across the internet and presents work internationally. His work deals with lines and marking primarily in pencil, more often changing the medium on which this technique is employed than the technique itself. He sees the pencil as intimate, responsive to differences in weight getting close to the page, standing in contrast to the mass-produced and cold printed media upon which he places the marks.

Graphite, Highlighter on paper
Like the landscapes, this edition concentrates on simple shape and geometry, although the pieces hold some formal comparison to a flower, Danby subverts this certainty with the unnatural colours of the highlighter pen. Here, he takes the slicing of the page further making a third dimension to the shape, as well as the medium.
