To celebrate the start of the new season, here are some images of my latest artwork entitled ‘l’hiver’ (French for winter).
This artwork consists of over 80 hand-made pieces of paper. Made from cotton and abaca, each piece was individually created and later dyed resulting in a harmonious ensemble. Just like snowflakes falling from the sky on a cold winter’s day; each element is unique.
The creative process took place at the MCBA (Minnesota Center for Book Arts) in Minneapolis, where I am a member of the artist cooperative. I thoroughly enjoy working in the large, clean paper studios and, as you can see, I have a tendency to spread.
L’hiver was part of a group exhibition earlier this year at The Phipps Center for the Arts in Hudson, WI. As usual I fell behind on my internet duties and forgot to inform you ahead of time. Better late than never.
