my work in progress pieces (pre-gold leaf) for an upcoming group show at the Swoon Gallery.
I will be in a group show in June that is gold leaf themed, “Nothing Gold Can Stay” at the Swoon Gallery. I’m excited to test out a new medium and it was very daunting to work with the material. I’m finally over the “oh crap I know nothing about what I’m doing” to “I’ve got this!” Level up!
I concentrated on a theme of gold/fool’s gold analogy and weaved it with various fairytale/fabled characters that have some association with gold or gold symbolism. I’m still working on a title for the triptych and individual titles. Hopefully that will come to me in the next few days.
I will post the finished photos when the work is complete and (more importantly) when the show is about to open.
