Sparks & Embers,
a collection of ten collages
5 x 3.25 x 2.5”
When taking walks in the desert or beside a stream, I am always on the lookout for cracked rocks that might split open to become book covers. To find a rock like this one with three good layers was special luck. I knew right away the first layer would be a pop-up. Once I decided on a fire, the idea of burning holes in the handmade paper pages followed naturally, but what do those burnt holes reveal? I decided on a series of collages to reflect the variety of things that inspire my creativity. |
