Amanda Andersen
"Six Gores" Minimal drawing Oil Pastel on Paper, organic neutral, black, pattern

2012

About the Item

Oil Pastel on archival 150g grey paper by Amanda Andersen. One in a series of three drawings by Amanda Andersen created during an artist residency at the Vermont Studio Center in 2012. During this residency the artist explored ideas of flight while researching the invention and design of the hot air balloon. These drawings belong to a larger group of work reflecting on the duality of the balloon as a symbol for romantic flight as well as a powerful tool of displacement. Here the artist was especially interested in the parts that make up a balloon canopy, the pieces of the pattern are called gores, similar in shape to a natural tree leaf. Specifically a gore is one panel–a segment of a hot air balloon envelope–six of these are sewn together to create a full balloon canopy, therefore six gore shapes are represented on each piece in this series. Minimal repeating organic looking solid black shapes have a velvet-like sheen on neutral colored grey paper. The artwork is initialed on the back the backside also has acid free tape on the corners. Artwork ships in a tube from Hamburg.
