Silent Running is an ongoing visual practice concerned with pressure, containment, and scale.
The work describes conditions rather than narratives, with experience shaped by systems rather than self-expression.
Produced through a hybrid process combining analogue mark-making and digital composition, the practice moves between drawing, image-making, and spatial development without a fixed hierarchy.
Materials include pencil, Sharpie, charcoal, gouache, and iPad.
Silent Running functions as a container for different modes of work, from system-led image making and illustration to applied visual development and process-led notes.
The work continues as an evolving illustrated body, with potential for animation and expanded spatial forms.
Neil Gittins is a Welsh-born artist based between the UK and Vilnius, Lithuania.
