Intricate pen and ink works by Malta-based artist Glenn Ellul.
The series, entitled “Structures of the Mind,” explores imaginative architectonic ethereal edifices, presenting intriguing, fine and meticulous graphic works which disclose the artist’s fascination for visionary architecture and appealing constructions, some of which are inspired by local monumental architecture of the artist’s native Malta.
These works also reflect the artist’s mind and his pursuit to reinterpret space, defined by the syntax of architecture – such as scale, shape, tectonic principles and decorative artifacts.
