I’ve begun working on forms and fabrics for my new series, as yet unnamed. The Artifacts series is my jumping off point, but the work is also being influenced by the work I did for MadArt. The shape of the figure is still coming through in these forms and the wall forms are much larger than those I made last Winter. Nothing is set yet, no decisions are final, and I’m still living in this unsettled place of creation. Forms are almost there, and I’m auditioning fabrics, so progress is being made but I know I’ll be happier once I start putting my hands on pieces that will become the final product. Until then, it’s time cutting out shapes, dyeing fabric, and head scratching.
Auditioning fabrics:
I enjoy seeing the forms in their blank state. It is enlightening to see the process from the beginning.
