Boyle Family

I wrote about the Boyle Family last year during the Reflective Practice unit:

I don't have a great deal to add other than when I first saw their work it was before I even thought about studying art, and it had an enormous impact upon me. I'd not seen work before that followed through an idea to such extremes.

I haven't seen much more of their work over the years in exhibition, but to me it's an example of a significant moment of influence that perhaps plays out years later: in Embedded, through the apparent textures and materiality of the walls, which, like in the Boyle Family work, are a construct, in my case digital.
