About the Item

In this bright and colorful paper sculpture, a fantastical botanical form is composed of dense layers of thousands of elements in purple, hunter green, golden yellow, light green and coral colored prints, hand-colored etchings on hand-cut handmade Loktah paper chine colléd to Rives lightweight paper, hand-cut marbled paper and hand-cut pigmented handmade Loktah paper pinned with black enameled brass tipped steel entomology pins to a fabric covered ethafoam, dibond and wood strainer. Framed in a polished, UV protected acrylic shadowbox. Signed on verso. The study of botanical and zoological forms, and the outdoor environment provide starting points for the fantastic ecosystems that Parisi creates. These highly detailed works ask the viewer to consider the subtle beauty of nature in our fast paced culture, and the impact of humans on our natural surroundings.

  • Lichen Two, Long Hanging Sculpture, Torch-Worked Glass, Chain Maille Links
    By David Licata
    Located in Kent, CT
    This long hanging sculpture by David Licata is composed of square links of torch-worked borosilicate glass in pale jade green, orange, pale translucent yellow, bright neon yellow, deep burgundy red, and clear links towards the bottom. The square links are joined together in a Japanese four-to-one chain maille pattern, cascading downward from an asymmetrical, bent glass tube supported by two metal brackets that can be installed in the wall. The result is an ethereal, delicate work that casts dynamic shadows on its surroundings and glistens in light. Transforming rods of borosilicate glass with fire, David Licata uses a variety of gas torches to pull, stripe, blend, twist and bend glass into ornate links which are transformed into an elaborate wall sculptures of undulating glass. Licata who is exceptionally knowledgeable and adept at creating historic chaine maille patterns often bases his contemporary artwork in that tradition. Licata’s sculptures explore the ideas of protection inherant in chain maille and linked fencing in contradiction to the implicit fragility of glass. Variously transparent and opaque, solid and ephemeral, his glass sculptures are solid forms and also cast shadows that are fugitive and integral parts of the artwork. David Licata has a MFA from Cranbrook Academy of Art, Bloomfield Hills, MI and a BA in Fine Arts and Education from SUNY New Paltz...
