Silver Maple, Fall (Perspectival Forms Series)

Growing out of my prior philosophical work in perception, the pieces in my Perspectival Forms series explore the layered surfaces that turned vessels afford and highlight the relationship between the viewer and the object. Each vessel is designed to be viewed from a particular angle—relying on the viewer’s perspective to create an image out of the exterior surface, the interior surface, and the two layers of carved negative space. The texturing and directional dry brushing in the interior allow for subtle color variations depending on the viewing angle.
