'Scribbleology' is a portmanteau of a made-up word coined from a combination of the words 'scribble' and 'ology'. Curiosity lead the artist to create these bodies of work. While working on his focused body of artwork, the scribbles were left over paint so promptly he put the brushes to use on refurbished and water colour paper, after that he added spray paint and vivid to create enticing scribbles.The studies became an idea of creating artworks that spawn from nothing, no thoughtful vision and just an intuitive process of having fun - metaphorically being more childlike seeing the world through a playful lens and applying it to our everyday life.

Using paint brushes, spray paint and vivid helped emphasise the unique warped shapes that flow into nuanced mark making movements across the acrylic and refurbished papers. This allowed the materials to become the guides of creating the artworks.

Each brush stroke became an act of visualisation of the natural environment, after finishing each piece the artist analysed how he is interpreting nature in a stylistic manner, some looking at waves crashing, birds flying, natural tones of gardens and bush, earthly textures etc.

This process became more about flow and movement, the importance of it and how the artist incorporates it into his practice; where the materials create the artwork rather than the artist doing so, thus letting the flow-state take over.

The artist wants the audience to interpret the artworks in their own way, seeing what gems they can find within each artwork. 

Taranaki based multidisciplinary artist, Sean Hill, has been creating art ever since he could remember. From a young age, Sean always had an interest in designs and a fascination with objects to create his own illustrative designs throughout his life. Fast forward now, graduating from university studying Visual Arts, Sean’s practice is all about conceptual thinking of art and art making. Finding textures through different uses of refurbished pallet wood, to creating mini-sculptures from off-cuts.

From an experienced background in large public mural displays, Sean tends to save his detailed and precise artworks for exhibiting in contemporary galleries. As of recently Sean’s mural designs have become part of the contemporary gallery space, showing the importance of temporary display that won’t be seen again - a nuanced thinking from his graffiti background.

Sean’s practice has taken him into a world of endless creativity, creativity that is abundant with colours, abstract shapes, dimensions and now mini to large sculptural artworks, using the same concepts of his paintings but creating them into 3-Dimensional displays. Sean’s vision is to show the importance of colours and how we can see colours transform into large mural installations and paintings to create physical and colourful sculptures that you can touch or move.

Frequency, vibration, energy, sequences, formations and dimensions are everything in Sean’s practice and for the audience to experience what he makes from scratch.

Sean leaves you with this - if a butterfly was not a contrasting orange or blue it would not stand out.
