Sam Ayres

I work primarily in drawing, producing large-scale abstract works on paper through systematic processes. The work develops through accumulation, variation and compositional decision-making, allowing organic structures, rhythms and spatial relationships to emerge over time. Structure is established through repetition, while variation and density emerge through accumulated decisions across the surface.

Alongside original drawings, selected works are produced as limited edition giclée prints on archival paper, preserving the scale, line quality and material sensitivity of the original works. The practice is studio-based and developed through ongoing experimentation with mark-making, repetition and scale.
