Loren Eiferman
Wall sculpture: "Talking Roots #1"

2019

About the Item

Eiferman invite’s you to immerse yourself in a world where transformed shapes, lines, and colors are all crafted out of nature's detritus. The inspiration for her drawings come from the botanical illustrations found within the pages of both the mysterious and cryptic 15th-century Voynich Manuscript as well as the black and white images of early 20th-century German photographer Karl Blossfeldt from his seminal book "Urformen der Kunst”. Once I have gathered these sticks and brought them back into my studio and let them rest for a period of time, I proceed to debark them and search for the inherent shapes and small forms hidden within each stick. Then the wood is cut and permanently joined into small naturally formed shapes. The open joints are then covered with homemade putty, followed by extensive sanding to achieve a seamless finish. This process of puttying and sanding is often repeated three times. It is through this slow meticulous process of joining small shapes together that each sculpture gradually takes form, bringing my original line sketch to life in three-dimensional space.”
