Parallel Planar Panel

2015

Parallel Planar Panels sit at the intersection between textile and painting as both are formal, tactile objects that are embedded with a conceptual language that comes from their social history and technical making. They reflect an enduring interest in the porous boundaries between distinct modes or genres. Rather than seeking to deconstruct categories and taxonomies, strategy of careful syncretism are honed and adopted. In this iteration, handwoven wool weavings are combined with metal panels painted with high gloss automotive paint into a composition of conjoined panels and interlinking reality fields.
