1998, Currier Gallery of Art, Manchester, NH
Collections of leaves and seedpods are preserved by drying or laminating in plastic. These natural materials are re-ordered and arranged in regular patterns, such as grids. Each leaf and pod is slightly different, creating delicate and variegated compositions. The installation creates a synthesis of manmade and natural systems.
Materials: Leaves, seed pods, plexiglas, plastic laminate
Dimensions: 14' H x 29' W x 36' L
