My map relief sculpture was a piece inspired by my childhood memories of always being lost. When I was young, I love wandering off. I always felt like I was turning corners alone, until my parents came running after me. Even today, I find myself wandering off in different ways of life. I created this piece in a circular motion to represent me circling around in life, searching for something. I created each ring getting smaller and smaller, until the smallest piece, representing me finding my way. The white finish was chosen to represent innocence.
Chicken wire and yarn Space approx. 3x5ft This project was aimed at using some sort of method in drawing on an object. I chose chicken wire because of how dimensional it is. I enjoy the space it creates, as well as the freedom to manipulate its form. Like my other work, i am constantly using process as a means of content in my work. Process is always an important aspect in my work, as it has to be an enjoyable one for me to be able to commit to the process in the studio. I found the process of creating marks with yarn to be very important, as I find importance in textile materials. Mary Grisey Rebecca Ward Richard Tuttle
