contemporary, 2025
a testament to the investigation
of reimagining
breaking familiar confines
materials include:
-steel hoop
-spent line from the lakefront trail
-bike tube wrapped border from working bikes
-deconstructed cotton/misc fabrics from the wasteshed
-upholstery samples
all materials are deconstructed by hand then reconstructed into the artwork shown here. the spokes of the bike rim are removed by hand. all the fabrics are ripped/cut by hand. in-house.
measures 25"ish in diameter
a fabric strip has been securely attached to the back of the original art work as hanging hardware.
for the peace to be found
for the courage when asking
the same question
over
and over again
how animalistic we remain
your new original piece of meditative wall art will be packed and shipped lovingly in recycled materials
