Recession, Death and Rebirth 01, 2009 (detail)For the last couple of years, my process of making art was experimental with different mediums and methods. I recently came back to cutting paper after a vision for working with the materials in a new light.
When I moved to Brooklyn in September, I was really strapped for cash and turned to found objects as resources for a new series of work. The sidewalks offer plenty of tossed out books that I found useful. In this time of famine and insecurity, the mood feels very black and white. I also started to make very delicate cuts to create circular patters, a feeling that I have been going through often, trying to find my way, unemployed, barbed and bitter, but also pleasantly inspired by my new home of New York City.
