Paper, cotton mat board, conservation clear acrylic, painted white wood frame
Made of multiple layers of patterned vellum laminated between clear acrylic, the piece lets light move through densities that shift from layer to layer, creating gradual progressions from light to dark. It is a celebration of light and can hang in a window or any place where daylight or the sun can shine through it. Claire loved the Italian word for star, stella, and this piece reflects that love in both its glow and its quiet radiance.
