My intention in making this installation was to create a myriad of intriguing shaped pieces created from an unfamiliar material. I created collages on vinyl that were then carefully cut into strips and woven together on a loom. The woven work was then stiffened and cut into unusual shapes with references to primitive art. The shapes are then arranged into an installation on the wall. My intention in making this installation was to create a myriad of intriguing shaped pieces created from an unfamiliar material.
