A Series of Series<\/h2>

A small format “series of series” using decorative Japanese paper as background.\u00a0 Each is a series of 4 (one sheet of the decorative paper, quartered). Collaged on these patterned backgrounds are my black ink strokes and small elements cut from Japanese Chiyogami paper.<\/p>

Each: 9 x 12″<\/strong><\/p>

One thread through my work is working from an unapologetically female position. I have made work about our bodies “Vulva Series” and about our experiences “Madwomen & Murderesses.”\u00a0 In these series, the small format carries intense, almost cloying decorative patterns. Intentionally “hyper-feminine,”\u00a0 they push a feminine voice past what feels like “acceptable limits.”\u00a0<\/p>

Support Papers:<\/strong> These are Asian decorative papers, chosen for their small repeat, limited palette,\u00a0 and decorative presence.<\/p>

Black Ink Elements:<\/strong>\u00a0 In this and my other collages, the black ink strokes are executed on light blue, Arturo Text paper, then cut out, retaining a narrow margin… to create a double edge: from the ink and from the cut paper.<\/p>

Chiyogami Paper:<\/strong> This traditional Japanese decorative paper is silkscreen printed and can have many colors\/layers. The papers used as ground in these series are only 1-2 colors.<\/p>

Nepalese Decorative Papers:<\/strong> These are very similar to Japanese silk screened paper, but the paper is a rougher, handmade paper.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
