Pulp Series

Pulp Series serves as a metaphor between our connections, wonder of the natural world and to our future. Like a river or the blood flowing through our veins, our human connection and vessel is in continuous change, transition and movement. This work discusses and celebrates the fluid connections and movements of body and time, like a river in motion moving toward transformation and hope for our future. The work investigates the fundamental structure of nature’s instinctive procedures, formations and energy. Particularly, this series explores the contained energy which forces growth and change, such as in living organisms, pinecones, stalagmites to coral reefs and land formations. Specifically, this work is hand-built and carved to expose a network of growth pattens that are defined by light tonal variations and transparencies of the medium. Mixed-media materials used are cast and woven paper, copper wire, cast glass, clay, paperclay, stain and fiberglass.
