About the Item

This wall-hanging sculpture titled "Was Happy Cancelled?" is an original artwork by Kelly Kozma made of assorted & repurposed punched paper, hand-stitched together with embroidery thread. The artist utilizes brightly colored paper to form this wall-hanging tapestry with abstract patterns and a central yellow smiley face. This piece measures approximately 61”h x 58”w x 2"d. The radiant palette and light hearted imagery of my latest body of work, are a reflection of both my deep sadness and my highest hopes. On one hand, this work is about the facades we put up to protect ourselves and the faces we wear to create an idealized version of how we want to be perceived. However, there is also an intention to simply create a lightness and allow time and space to gaze upon something joyful and whimsical. I made bright and happy work from a dark place. My goal is not to disguise our experiences but rather channel their energy into something beautiful.
