Linda K Schinkel
Winter's Gems

2012

About the Item

It was one of those rare days with sheets of ice simultaneously creating treacherous conditions and stunningly out-of-this-world experiences. The artist braved the weather firmly committed to finding a gem that spoke to her in the language of abstraction found in representative work. Caught in a sweet spot of frozen glory, captivated joy evoked wistful emotions with realism blending into fantasy. This 2D work appears 3D and is known as a Metalagram®. Created at the intersection of art + science the artist used old world techniques + 21st century technology to sculpturally create a dimensional interactive experience. This Metalagram® work appears differently from 180 degree vantage points and from varying angles of incidence. Lighting impacts the work as photons dance across the hand cut layered aluminum. This work was made in the artist studio in the former Moross House Museum, the oldest brick dwelling in Detroit, MI, circa 1840.
