In “Vestiges”, each form utilizes the same amount of a singular material, while possessing subtle variations in diameter, length, and openings. The unique identity of each figure allows them to be addressed separately or in relation to one another. Paper, the traditional drawing surface, has taken the pencil’s role by transforming into the continuous line that composes the greater whole. “Vestiges” grew, loop by loop, yet they appear as delicate remnants, the remains of something that once occupied their spaces.

    Really interesting concept.

    Did you make this? How? What is pine yarn? Where was the exhibition?

      The yarn was a japanese yarn made from pine paper that was basically knit. The exhibition was at New York Center for Art and Media Studies (aka NYCAMS) in the Fall. It was part of our group show.
