A Space Between
By Philippa Lawrence
2018
A small dead tree, a bonsai, spun with a halo of threaded holes.
Close consideration reveals subtle material qualities.
The multiple holes are seared sheepskin parchment that has been partially gilded before being tied onto strands of monofilament. The elements embody time and transformation, and question value and worth. The work is a continuation of exploration of material and process to evoke and speak of memory and mutability.
