1Strong Ties #7, 2022
Found wood, house paint
24" x 24" x 1"
"Strong Ties" is an ongoing series of assemblages handmade from discarded wood. Using a simple construction method, pieces of wood are attached and held together with other scrap pieces. A design is created from the functional placement of these connectors. The series intersects minimalism's smooth logic of reductive geometry and color with materials that have organic form, texture and a narrative history. Asking questions about the exploitation and waste that economic systems create, it demonstrates the importance of maintaining a strong solidarity--a care network--to protect ourselves and our authentic human relationships.
