- Biographical Information
- I have been working with handcast paper for 13 years in both two and three dimensional formats. This piece reflects on the problems of a commodity based economy like Oregon's, specifically the boom/bust cycles of the lumber industry, while at the same time draws inspiration from the spiritual and atmospherical aspects of the region's natural landscape. The use of the paper saws serve as a metaphor. (Bell, 1989.)
