Jane Ostler

One of a series of cut and mark book made. The process of painting an ink mark then cutting around it to create a new form, removing the paper door only to paint another ink mark inside the hole created tunnels, which had an allegorical status. Cutting the void, the blank non-space was a way past the nihilism at that time.
