Something Was Here, Now It’s Not, I/II

Mixed media plaster construction on canvas wrapped wood

Created 2019

24 x 18 x 2.25 in (60.9 x 45.7 x 5.7 cm)

Presented in a five-sided, uv-filtering acrylic museum box, co-designed by the artist.

I wanted these pieces to look like stone so I used natural pigment from Verona Italy for the base and natural iron for the orange/red aged look around the border.

I love the pieces hanging flat on the wall; it enhances the mystery of how much dimension is actually on such a thin surface.
