About the Item

Severijns gathered these broken stones from the eroded cliffs on the Poleg/Netanya beach after a devastating storm in 2018. The work abstracts the aftermath of lost pieces of land floating in a bleeding sea. Severijns' self-developed manipulating paper techniques are based on layering, merging, and weaving hundreds of small, hand-torn paper pieces into sculptural tapestries, murals, reliefs, and three-dimensional objects. The repetitive act of tearing paper creates a rugged, rough finish on each piece, emulating life itself with all its beauty and harshness, representing life’s imperfections. Bianca Severijns (b.1964) is a Dutch artist, born in the Netherlands. Severijns creates her multifaceted, striking artworks by continuously exploring the paper medium. Rooted in a multicultural background, her art explores themes of displacement, identity, and migration that stem from personal narratives, as well as nature’s cycles. With the hope of starting anew, Severijns' art invites reflection on our shared world.

Sylvia Schwartz, 'Brush Stroke, sculptural element in Red Plane', 2016, Resin
By Sylvia Schwartz
Located in Darien, CT
Sylvia Schwartz In her structures, silicone molds are cast from both natural and hand-made forms, including clay coils, volcanic rock patterns, seaweed, and the artist’s own fingerprints. Leaving the human trace evident through the repetition of shapes and textures in both the natural and man-made elements, provides a measure of stability, a reference point. These manmade and natural forms merge, revealing our inexplicable dependence on nature. Through this melding of two entities, new life is breathed into the art object. Paper as a primary medium allows Schwartz to sculpt, draw and paint simultaneously. The flow of the pulp (a natural phenomenon in itself) meshes with the molded forms creating a structure that seems to rest on the edge between painting and sculpture. The duality between light and heavy, interior and exterior, planned and accidental, order and chaos, leading ultimately to a sense of life. Red...
