Happy Villages
Step,
window and door shapes, are cut randomly from fabrics and collaged
together to create mysterious little villages. Sometimes my journey will take me
to center city and other times to remote cliff dwellings. The
use of these shapes and the freedom of the collage process are symbolic of
my personal journey as an artist. I never quite know where it will take me, but
I am enjoying the ride!
The
fabric collage process is described in detail in my
book "Happy
Villages".
