temporary
installation
this
art piece is about 8' x 20' as an entire spread laid flat
and is an assemblage of 123 paintings ("labels") done over the past
year with beeswax and natural pigments on recycled labeled cardboard box flaps of various dimensions. They are tied together with
hemp twine allowing an overall flexibility for/with installations at different waterfall
sites along the Eastern slopes of the Shawangunk and Catskill Mountains West of
the Hudson River in New York State. I'm researching about 70 waterfalls in these
conjoining South/North mountains. I won't be doing installations at that many
by far, 6 - 8 perhaps. I’ll photo and video document this process/ional. with
using biodegradable materials the installation work will culminate at the
bottom of the last installation and/or be recycled and/or shown and offered as
individual labels w/hemp as separate art works, photos/videos and possible book
format when funding becomes available…
