Pigment on paper, cotton mat board, conservation clear acrylic, painted white wood frame
Orange pigment pools on paper like the bright heart of agate. Set on cotton mat board and enclosed in conservation clear acrylic with a painted white wood frame, the piece deepens as you look closer. Its layers of patterned vellum, sealed within clear acrylic, shift how light behaves. Rather than slipping through the material, light and shadow travel across the raised surfaces, revealing the contours of the topography.
