About the Item
Steeped in tradition I am a hand papermaker. I make unexpected paper. Unfamiliar and mysterious appearing like gut or some ancient idea of vellum. It suggests that it was born not grown or made from a plant, not fiber but fauna. Over 30 years of papermaking and it’s still a journey. Paper holds my imagination to find new ways of expressing the natural world through shaping the material. My working techniques abandon the traditional sequence and separates itself from the making of most paper art. I gather it up and work with the sheets still damp and in their most pliable state. The paper flexes with each crease, twist, or roll in multiple directions. These manipulations integrate structure into the paper itself, making the forms self-supporting and adds texture. After this stage the paper is air-dried, unrestrained allowing the sheets to contort as they dry, called cockling. This method softens the finished shapes, lines, and architecture by creating more surface variations. It becomes a paper landscape absorbing light with a topography of deep shadows that changes through the course of day. Paper craves light. The ability of the paper to diffuse light is directly related to formulating the length of time the plant fibers are beaten or cut, where longer beating times yields shorter fibers and makes the paper more translucent even glass-like. Making the materials for my sculpture from the ground up provides a pathway to engage with history. Humble and under-appreciated yet strong and long-lasting paper yields designs beyond my expectations in beauty and depth. My world, the worlds I create stem from this simple source material.

- Sylvia Schwartz, 'Brush Stroke, sculptural element in Red Plane', 2016, ResinBy Sylvia SchwartzLocated in Darien, CTSylvia 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...Category
