Inherent Knowledge: Mother
April 2014
I am interested in knowledge. Specifically how information is passed from one generation to the next. I use book-like forms as a metaphor for the conduit in which this knowledge is transferred.
This suspended sculptural work was created by altering and hand binding book-like forms out of discarded dictionaries. These pieces have been delicately shaped and transformed using fire, water and air, to reflect organic material, such as leaves, petals, and pods. Baby food jars represent an innocent stage of life as well as a new generation’s view of our archaic forms of knowledge.
