Soft blues, neutral tones, and subtle glimmers of metallic texture gather across the surface, creating a sense of quiet suspension and delicate discovery. Dimensional sculpted forms rise gently from the layered ground — not quite clouds, not quite constellations, but something between memory and matter. Small metallic fragments and broken bits of jewelry rest among the fibers like tiny signals or artifacts, adding a whisper of sparkle and curiosity.
Found in Space explores the beauty of noticing — the quiet magic of encountering something unexpected in stillness and openness.
The piece begins with layers of tissue paper and dyed cheesecloth, forming a soft, woven foundation. Paint settles into the texture, creating depth and atmosphere. Thin strands of twine establish subtle directional lines, like quiet pathways beneath the surface.
Hand-formed pulp — created by breaking down reclaimed fabrics, yarn, and book pages — is sculpted into raised shapes that hover lightly above the ground. Compared to the airier formations in Floating in Space, these hold a slightly denser, more terrestrial presence — as if fragments of thought or meaning were gently coalescing.
Tiny found objects and jewelry remnants punctuate the composition, catching light and acting as small moments of recognition — reminders that even in vast unknowns, we stumble upon pieces of truth, history, and connection.
A piece about discovery without seeking, stillness that reveals, and the way fragments become whole when held with attention.
