Folklore panels

These panels were designed as decorative objects that draw inspiration from tribal and folk art. In these panels the familiarity of the textured canvas juxtaposed with the bizarre skin like quality of the latex result in textile pieces that at once seem both familiar, tribal and somewhat uncanny.

Linen, latex, latex colourant, tracing paper, brass channel. Set; timber, plywood, plaster, silicone cake moulds, hardware.

PROCESSES

Making experimental textile pieces. Set build; plaster treatment on wood.
