About the Item

"Red Diptych" is a wall sculpture made of paper, paint and resin with a wide range of colors, no two identical. As an artist, Janet Sherman is interested in the boundaries created by form, shape, and color. This subject matter interests her because these boundaries are a metaphor for the different types of boundaries we encounter in our everyday existence. In her work she explores this subject matter by folding dimensional boxes out of painted paper. She meticulously arrange the boxes creating a protruding grid of color, then adheres them to the substrate. She then covers the entire surface with epoxy resin creating a glossy surface. This surface creates the illusion of glass or tile perplexing the viewer to determine whether the boxes are projecting out or in relief. Her work is further characterized by vivid contrasts in color and subtle differences in whites and darks. Through these works, Janet Sherman urges the viewer to feel an emotional response to the contrasting color fields, provoking the viewer to think about how these boxes resemble things in everyday life - our homes, city blocks, or even the windows we look out of to view the world around us.
