Forms, colors and profiles repeat, are handsewn and extruded from everyday materials such as canvas and clay. They are cut, aggregated and bound together into skin and structure. These new surfaces are a fusion of composition, pattern, surface and color resulting from repetition and labor.28 pagesen-USThe author has granted Alfred University a limited, non-exclusive right to make this publication available to the public.
