About the Item
I salvage vinyl street banners that would otherwise be discarded in landfills, using their words, colors, and imagery as a starting point for my creative process. These reclaimed materials serve as message boards of societies, evoking both place and time through their physical presence. By meticulously hand-cutting the material into strips, I fracture the original image, disrupting the intended message of the printed information. As I weave the assorted strips together, the images disintegrate into complex abstract shapes and color schemes. The resulting pixelated forms further deconstruct the original image, transforming it into a new narrative.

- Large Animal Wall Sculpture: 'Wormhole'By Gin StoneLocated in New York, NY'I am a multidisciplinary artist with a focus on ecofeminism using fiber and mixed media constructions. My materials include hand-dyed commercially fished line and ghost gear, recycled and antique textiles, fabric printed with cyanotype emulsions and found objects. I change the existing surface of recognizable animals by creating a veneer of unexpected color and imagery. This forces the viewer to consider the shape more carefully by visually exploring its new topography. The creation process can be likened to painting with fiber (that has been tinted with hand-mixed dyes) on a three-dimensional canvas. Intense work is spent creating the eyes and ears to convey the emotion of each animal. I look to the work of Joan Mitchell and The Quilters of Gee’s Bend as inspiration for pattern and color, as well as charts, iconography, and satellite imaging.' -Gin Stone...Category
