After Agnes Series

A series of sculptural paintings made from shrinkwrap and bubblewrap. The series explores the membrane of the "wrapper" as a signifier of absence or not-having, and as material considered valuable only in its ability to protect and contain the central objects of value. I investigate the reversal that happens when these materials shed their role as wrappers and lay full claim to a role as the primary object of value.

The reflectivity of the plastics used capture ambient light and cause the paintings to change over the course of the day. This invitation to meditative contemplation is a powerful component of the work.
