Wrapped

These are samples from "wrapped" Unfortunately, I left the pieces in the classroom too long and they probably got trashed. It originally consisted of: a whip shaped branch, wrapped in colored thread in stripes one sidewrapped very tightly, handle-like and the other tied and wrapped progressively looser, labeled: grip and losing grip. I also made a cocoon out of wax paper and acrylic paint that i attached to a little stubby branch " cocoon". The ones pictured here "in layers" a box made of stiff paper covered in painted magazine pages, revealing what is underneath. "individually wrapped"-newspaper strips rolled and contained by a tin, but each separate with the potential of rolling away and never coming back. "lost"- a box with magazine strips that wrap around a little handmade scrabble piece, it is easy to get lost, wrapped in clutter and unnecessary information, inhibitions, we all want to be found.
