Leafscapes:

Mixed Media Scrolls on Silk

2024 - 2025

This series of work honors the details of leaf margins.  Here, leaf monoprints using a gel plate are layered onto silk scrolls.  The placement and location of these scrolls determine the meaning and usage of it as an object.  If hung outside in my garden, the wind gracefully dances with the material, sun shining through its fibers.  The scrolls are a part of the living landscape; it breathes as its brothers and sisters still in the ground breathe.  When hung on a wall, the scrolls become still and available for contemplation.  Eyes can narrow in on the movement within the composition and rest on an area of depth or detail.  There are little worlds throughout this scroll, an unconventional form of landscape.
