Constellations were the creation of schematic patterns by linking stars of varying sizes, colours and brightness.

In my multi-panel installation, I have made an Imaginary Constellation exploring interactions between the coloured highlights and the repeated alternating vertical and horizontal background pattern. The radiating coloured lines combine to form diagonal grid-like array apparently randomly scattered across the field. Based on pattern and chance relationships the constellation can be viewed as a positive or negative schema.’ Excerpt Raymond Carter, 2019
