Found On…

There is absolutely no rhyme or reason to why I selected Kate MccGwire’s site specific installation today, aside from the fact that it’s just plain COOL.  I  mean really.  After flipping through a few blogs on my Google Reader, I stumbled on this post from even*cleveland and literally gasped out-loud.  Or maybe I snickered.  Either way, I was smitten, and didn’t quite know why.  

Kate uses pigeon feathers, felt, glue, and polystyrene to create these intricate masterpieces.  In her mission statement, Kate states:  ”I gather, collate, re-use, layer, peel, burn, reveal, locate, question, duplicate, play and photograph.”  

 

Indeed she does, and somehow, it just works.

 

Wishing you blue skies and sunshine (which we haven’t seen in New Jersey in what seems like decades),

Kathryn
