Hello!
I have a show of new found paper collages up at NIAD in April in Richmond, CA. Please stop by for the opening reception on Saturday, April 15th, 2017. Also showing at NIAD’s galleries are solo shows by the inspiring Marlon Mullen and Sylvia Fragoso.  DETAILS
About PUZZLE:
These imaginary landscapes are created with layers of found oscilloscope recording papers from the Black Hole Surplus in Los Alamos, NM. The Black Hole Surplus was a large thrift store from the collections of a former Los Alamos National Labs machinist and technician, Ed Grothus. Due to the nature of how I like to render formations, my process is slow with cutting, tearing, and gluing each layer to add depth and texture. These rough-edged horizons with sediment-filled crevasses contain  criss-crossing, overlapping lines that are used to graph formations and devise places that exist in these papers.
