Artist Reflection Statement
The three sculpture collection consisting of Dark Waters, Aspens, and Spiders Corner are all unrepresentative. However, they consistently have a narrative composition. Dark Waters particularly is inspired by a sense of danger, movement, and intensity. Aspens demonstrates repetition. The spaces between each stick relate to the forest and its liminal space. And lastly, Spiders Corner consist of negative space but also displays a chaotic mess of threads that create texture.
These pieces allowed me to explore the different uses of materials and how simple things like glue and paper can turn an object into a story. What I’d like to do differently however would be expanding the pieces, making them a bit bigger in scale.
