Intersecting Boundaries
2015, Paint, Wood, Glass, Mirrors, Canvas, String)
In a month long residency in the is this/this is space in Elysium’s High-Street studios in Swansea, Eifion Sven-Myer has created an installation artwork using former paintings, mirrors and recycled wood. The aim of this venture was to create an obscure space that one would walk into and be uncertain of where to step, of where the boundaries lie. A room where two and three-dimensions fluctuate, where paintings have been manipulated into sculptures and the walls and floor have become supports for paintings.





Obscured Light - Misshapen Vistas
Installation artwork created in the 'Test Bed' exhibition space in Oriel Davies, Newtown, Powys, over a period of four days.
Exhibited from 16 Aprill - 15 June 2016
For TestBed Sven-Myer features work in response to the space that incorporates the play of light on mirrors, wooden structures and magnifying plastic sheets. He hopes to alter our understanding of form and space: creating peculiar vistas through magnification and light reflected off sculptural objects. His use of warped, Perspex mirrors reflect these vistas while painted abstract shapes are interwoven to harmonise the overall composition.

Installations
Break-Build Painting
This installation was made during my Beep International Painting Prize residency in 2016. This experimental process helped me progress my approach to bringing a dynamic building, taking apart and re-building of my work in two and three dimensions.
