About This Artwork
This mixed media/paper collage is a large-scale work inspired by the struggle for humanity to maintain its focus on preserving the "house" of justice and peace in the world. Frequently, I nest thematic content in a forest-like landscape conveying the sense that the spectator is a voyeur in a secret space.
My primary technique- “drawing with scissors” -uses cutting tools to cut freehand.
From scissors and surgical forceps to x-acto knives and cutting implements of all types, my hands are my principle tools.
Preliminary sketches for larger works are ‘drawn’ with scissor rather than pencil.
A secondary technique-"layering" involves the production of several layers of background, midground, and foreground to establish depth of field. Using two
means-photographing each layer or layering each layer on clear acetate sheets, I compose layers and can 'enter and edit' where desired before the final paste-up and seal. All papers are treated with sealant. Base papers are archival quality paper.
