Shadowbox Series



I've been working on these collages based on maps of cities where good friends live. I seem to work intuitively using the visual vernacular of these places left in my mind's memory from either living there or visiting and also from thinking about the friend who habitats that city. This one is for my friend Ryen who lives in San Francisco. I'm really happy with how it turned out and hope he is too!

i think the shadowbox looks really nice. definitely contemporary as an art object! u should take that to the gallery swap thing!

I like the idea of this as the object I take but it is for Ryen and so I could not use it because it would not be available for taking. I have another good idea for the object swap that is a bit more complicated and it involves dirt and worms! I'll try to share pictures when I am done!
