Waterfall
2019
concrete on foam, acrylic paint, moss, chains, jewelry beads
22" x 22" x 5"

The reasoning behind this piece was explore the idea of a collograph and to experiment with different and new materials. A collograph is a type of print that involves taking materials based on their textures and glueing them on to a board in hopes to transfer over an image based on those selected textures. The ‘Waterfall’ started out by just one part of a bigger scene that started out on paper. My hopes were test out the 3D-ness of a sculpture collograph. Being constructed from foam was the original intention, but the concrete was a new and fun addition to it. The idea behind the bead water first stemmed from a rushed attempted to finish up a bigger concept, but in turn ended up stealing the show due to its sparkling and fluid like comparison to flowing water.
