{"title":"The Space Between Control","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Space Between Control explores the tension between holding on and letting go.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMy work has always involved an element of uncertainty. I can begin with an idea, a colour or a direction, but the materials have their own behaviour. They move, settle, resist and change, and often the most interesting moments happen when I stop trying to control every outcome.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eWith this collection, I wanted to take that further.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRather than working towards a fixed image from the beginning, I allowed the pieces to develop more instinctively. Decisions were made, undone and made again. Tests became paintings. Paintings changed direction. The collection evolved slowly over more than a year, alongside a period of life that felt full, changing and at times overwhelming.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThat seeped into the work. The pieces became less about executing a plan and more about responding to the material, to instinct, and to whatever was happening around me. Some works returned to the studio again and again before they felt resolved. Others emerged through a single unexpected moment.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe collection became as much about trusting the process as it was about the finished works.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor me, The Space Between Control sits in that uncomfortable but necessary place between shaping something and allowing it to become what it needs to be. Between intention and instinct, certainty and uncertainty, control and trust.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"haud-fire","title":"Haud Fire","description":"\u003cp\u003etesting\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Montana Moore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67692524896409,"sku":null,"price":13900.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0497\/2452\/2649\/files\/DSCF1764.jpg?v=1791889483"},{"product_id":"suspended-between-moments","title":"Suspended Between Moments","description":"\u003cp\u003etesting\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Montana Moore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67696906764441,"sku":null,"price":10900.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0497\/2452\/2649\/files\/DSCF1744-Edit-3_c8d83d30-2ca7-4dff-ab82-012f8e1aea17.jpg?v=1791930143"},{"product_id":"suspended-between-moments-copy","title":"Self Worth","description":"\u003cp data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAlmost two years in the making, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSelf Worth\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e has been through many changes to become the piece it is today.
