Weaving Fabric into Sculpture

Breaking Barriers

Very recently my experimental mind started playing with the possibilities of adding fabrics and recycled accessories to my found object sculptures. So along with all the cardboard and found metal objects to collect, I am now adding belts, ties and scarves to the mix. I love the juxtaposition of incongruent materials and color.

Since I had a few armatures already made and waiting for the perfect endings, I began playing with my newfound treasures. Color is ever important in my work , so weaving color into these sculptures was essential.

One of these recent sculptures was juried into the Through the Eye of the Needle exhibition at Hudson Valley MOCA in Peekskill NY. This is the third annual juried exhibition in this exciting venue and I was honored to be chosen to participate. Peekskill is a very artsy community about an hour north of New York City.

Renewal Sculpture Exhibition at Corcoran School of Art & Design

The refurbishment of “Ghost Dance”, a 1974 wood sculpture by Robert Stackhouse and Carol Mickett, housed at the Washington DC Corcoran School of Art and Design’s Flagg Building, led to a recent sculpture exhibit. In conjunction with the George Washington University, sculptors were invited from the Washington Sculptors Group to jury for the exhibit. Jurors were Olivia Kohler-Maga and Babette Pendelton. 23 sculptures, relating to the wood sculpture being refurbished, were chosen.

My cardboard construction “Scattered Thoughts” was part of this exciting exhibition. My piece was made from recycled cardboard pieces, cut, painted and collaged into the reverse side of a repurposed wood frame.

Juried by Olivia Kohler-Maga, Luther W. Brady Art Gallery and Babette Pendleton, Corcoran School of the Arts & Design
