David Ogle
The immediacy and linear quality of drawing naturally lends itself to Ogle’s way of working. A pulse of movement is captured across a surface, with viewers becoming implicated in the works time-based process by visually tracing the forms progression from beginning to end. This build up of a constant form often affords his work illusionary three dimensional qualities, with geometric shapes multiplying to create optical depth across a flat plane.
Ogle’s sculptural work aims to take the fundamental properties of drawing (with a focus on flatness and line) and transfer these into new spatial situations. Physical spaces are intersected by lines and forms that optically flatten an environment, each step the viewer takes offers a new perspective on extruding entities that seem to discard any kind of three dimensional physicality.
Creating an object with depthless properties, Ogle’s work appears to be out of the flow of a regular environment, a virtual object dragged into a physical space.
As well as being an artist member in Kinetica’s membership scheme, Ogle became one of Kinetica’s represented artists in the summer of 2011. He has two profiles on the Kinetica website, under both our represented artist profiles and in our members section.
OXYGEN: Artist Membership Programme

Kinetica’s membership scheme was launched in November 2010, and aims to provide Kinetica with the opportunity to extend it’s artist network whilst fostering emerging talent. Oxygen members are entitled to a profile on the Kinetica Museum’s website, and gain access to Kinetica’s interim exhibitions as well as our networks. This year Kinetica is focusing on an international tour, our artist members will have the opportunity to be involved and submit work for the following tour. In December 2013, a group of Kinetica’s Artist Members will be selected for a member’s exhibition in 2014.
