Another Attempt at the Boardwalk Art Show

Doug and I recently submitted our third Boardwalk Art Show application. Below you will find the images we submitted for our application. The funny thing about this application (and many others like it) is the fact that the artist gets only 300 characters, yes characters not words, to describe the materials and techniques used in creating the art. Regardless of the limitations to explain one’s work, we thought our description was concise and accurate not only with materials and technique but also in describing the intent of our work:

Copper sheet metal is cut into various shapes, colored with patina via oxidation, and displayed in hand crafted wood frames. This work explores how humans visually and conceptually reconcile the dichotomy of discrete and continuous data as it relates to nature and time.

I’ll try and post some explanations of the pieces soon. See ya’ll soon.

Scrappy – Artifying Scrap Materials

Scrappy

So in the last few months we have been collecting a whole lot of scrap wood from one of our neighbors. At the same time we are now beginning to generate our own scraps of various materials (plastics, leather, twine, etc). Being the conservationists we are, our scraps are rarely thrown away. We have some ideas, but at the moment we’re still in the brainstorming stages. Just keep your eyes open for some interesting, lighthearted, non-copper artwork in the future.
