Practice

Medium
Hand-cut and hand-torn layered paper — folding, tearing, piercing, cutting, embroidering
Layers separated by air — shadows from edges become secondary marks on surfaces below
Effect
Work appears to flow and breathe as viewer moves — image is not fixed
Shadow is the slowdown mechanism: makes the viewer stay long enough to notice
Intent
"Celebrate the handmade and slow the gaze"
Blurs the line between drawing and sculpture
