Medway Shadow Piece (Daniels)

By Jane Ponsford 2011

Jane Ponsford

This piece is from a series made in response to specific places and landscapes and to found objects within those spaces. It was made while I was working on a residency on the Medway estuary in Kent. Selected for 'First Anniversary: Paper' exhibition in 2011 at Unit Twelve, Staffordshire The paper is coloured with dirt and pigment from the rusty wire. I love working with paper pulp because it has such a receptive surface. The cast shapes are made to catch the light and to cast shadows.
