Gertrude Edition 2014

Two processes define this edition: drawing and the action of making.  The drawing process precedes making.  Dividing a rectangular sheet of the acrylic into rough sections, the shapes are hand drawn as a fluid outline and are roughly a similar format.  The outer edge of each edition is also the boundary to the adjacent shape, nesting in continuum.  Each edition drawing is designed to unravel upon itself as it detaches from the sheet and in the forming process.

Forming is unplanned, occurring as a physical action, wrapping, twisting, inter-twinning the acrylic. Limited by the scale and dimensions of my body sometimes forming is straightforward, a once off action and on other occasions the acrylic is edited by reworking the material.
