Paper Cuts, $3000

These are smaller works on paper, collaged, created during the quarantine as an expression of this confusing time working at home, confined to smaller spaces, listening to the news unfold, watching violence erupt as fear and anger take over. The title Paper Cuts conjures up a painful experience that happens without warning while the paper cuttings represent delicate states like lace or crochet that can be easily damaged; easily injured. At the same time, these works on mixed media paper have the raw feeling of craftwork. They are of the moment, unedited, like raw feelings that have yet to be processed. The color palette is limited to Black and White with some soft beige to represent the extreme points of view that dominate our political discourse leaving little room for common ground or clarity of thought. The papers are separated and glued to one another which highlights their separateness... the colors do not blend into one another like paint would. The colors signify ongoing racial tensions. Tension that can be felt when these colors are placed side by side. At the same time their beauty is enhanced by associating with each other since they are their most vibrant together. As with most of my current paintings, the forms relate to nature and renewal and have the similar energy of transformation that is in present in the rest of my work indicating that this experience, although painful and explosive, will transform us. I hope for the better. I hope for improvements for our country and our planet. 

Suite comes in handmade engraved clamshell box with museum gloves and artist statement.
