BURLAP 2B
2011
BURLAP (2010) explored mainstream media culture, marketing and contemporary art’s relationship with nature. Large scale photographs and internet images examining sex, fame, consumerism, and privacy were framed in seven candy colors. The images were stacked one in front of the other, creating a sculptural object. The image suite was then juxtaposed with a 25 foot, dying Copper Beech tree. BURLAP (2010) was a meditation on the disconnection between the veneer of a rabid modern society and the natural world.
In contrast, BURLAP 2B mined the mysteries and complexities of growing up and was a foil to the colder, adult lens of BURLAP(2010).
BURLAP 2B featured drawing, sculpture, video and installation from the perspective of a developing adolescent in the 1980's. The wood from the Copper Beech tree, seven colors, and the deconstruction of BURLAP (2010) exhibit were used as parameters to explore memory, family, pop culture, nascent sexuality, art, politics, and AIDS.
