About the Item
This drawing and layered paper collage titled "Mass Study XX" is an original diptych by Seth Clark. This piece is a mix of collage, charcoal, pastel, acrylic, and graphite on two wood panels. Through a combination of techniques, the artist is able to create an abstracted, architectural form, with an effect of dimensionality and distressing. The dimensions of the two panels together are 72”h x 84”w.
ABOUT THE ART My work focuses on deteriorating architecture. I see an inherent honesty in the face of my subject. These man-made structures, designed to be huge forces of permanence, are now collapsing in on themselves. Among all of the clutter—the shards of wood and layers of rubble—there remains a gentle resolve. It is as if the buildings were content with their circumstance. As I work, I study these structures incessantly. They are on the brink of ruin, yet appear dignified in their state. Something very energized and present is trying to escape out of a slow history of abandonment.
These images are created through an ambitious layering process. I collage with found paper to reflect the fragmented and complex tactility of decay. Once a dimensional foundation is achieved, various mixed media are used to bring definition and depth to these raw materials. The processes of collage and drawing alternate between themselves lending to a seamless blend of the two mediums.
