Initially these photo-based artworks blended hundreds of photographic images into gridded patterns of light and color. More recently fewer images are combined, collaged and montaged to create bold images that conflate figuration and abstraction. Creating gritty or confounding abstractions from overlooked construction sites or other everyday domestic situations drives Faulds more than employing photographs to narrate, depict or deceive, yet photographic veracity plays an important role.
Faulds career as a curator, exhibition designer, and a producer has provided a strong critical approach to his habitual image making. While a good deal of the image making continues through the camera and computer, a nascent studio practice is emerging that employs collage and assemblage to create display situations or installations that both engage and subvert his experience of presenting art in gallery environments.
