Caribe 1 in my series “Caribe 1, 2, 3” (see individual listings)

 

2023 virtual exhibition at Envisions Art - Aquamarine

 


My Mixed Media Fiber Art Series intended as visual eye candy to delight the

senses. It is an antidote to the uncertainty of the Covid years, to transport

the viewer as well as the artist out of the fog by focusing on cheerful

metaphorical references. It is an imaginary exploration into the tropics, a

magical profusion of colors, textures, and flora where one can lose oneself in

splendorific nature. Sheltering at home in the confines of isolation with

access to few resources and very little external stimulation I chose to “go

within.” There I found a tropical fantasy world I recreated using materials and

equipment at hand..

 

Culling imagery from mail order catalogs, I transposed flatness (paper) into

multidimensional fullness (tapestry) on small hand looms. Variations of watery

Aquamarine hues contrasted by hot pinks, bright sky-blue accents and rainforest

pigmentations of the paper images are augmented. I sliced and wove together 2D

paper with carefully curated 3D yarns from my available stash.


The tapestries developed organically, each one directing the next into an

impressionistic triptych. The proliferation of visual media gives the viewer

just enough source information to activate her/his own imagination. What goes

on in these secret cottages nestled within island jungles?
