Flat shallow sculpture of curvilinear shapes on a white wall.

 

 

 

This body of work spans over 2 years and is constructed entirely from sewn fabric and acrylic paint. There is no wooden armature and they are very flat. Small dress pins hold the work to the wall via eye hooks which are sewn into the topstitch on the reverse side. To accommodate for the artist's studio environment the works are engineered to fold-up for storage, each iteration carefully planned to fit inside a box which holds about a year's worth of finished pieces. They are designed to give a maximum amount of wallspace with a minimum amount of storage. 

 

Each piece is created one-after-the-other, never simultaneously, in an iterative process which retains traces of time of year as well as the artist’s temporal psychological condition. Because they are so rooted in seasonality they can be thought of as a form of fashion design, trawling the artist's neighborhood for color information from daily walks. In this way the work also participates in a constructivist reduction of the urban environment, a kind of futurist landscape painting.
