New Work: 12 x 12 x 12 October 2018


Like September's piece, 12 x 12 x 12 October 2018 is created with pieces of lace from some discarded clothing, and also a piece of monoprinted fabric from a construction fence I had hanging out in my studio. There are also some "holes" cut from black and white monoprinted construction fence fabric.

I've been working on my 12 x 12 x 12 series since January 2007. I'm two months away from finishing my 12th year. It has given me time to create one 12" x 12" x 1" piece on board each month, no matter how many other things are going on that month. It's been a wonderful opportunity for me to experiment with an idea or technique or a combination of both. This series is really about experimentation and creating something on a regular basis, no matter what else is going on in my life. Sometimes I like a piece, and sometimes not.

I've definitely decided that this is the last year I'm going to work on this series. I'll explain more about that decision later.
