Stage of development using banana fibre and methyl cellulose.
Interesting view from the top. It is a half body this time on a plinth. Lit from the inside. Even though it is showing a very mature aged body the light and fibre bring out the beauty within. This work is focusing on a moment of being. The half body is surrounded by overlapping moments that bring me to where I am now. That moment of being, we mature through self consciousness. Some of the overlapping moments I have burnt holes in the paper as not all our moments or memories are good. I love this quote from Beth Kempton from her book Wabi Sabi " It is our imperfections that make us unique, and our uniqueness that makes each of us beautiful . It is only when you strip back the layers that you let your inner beauty shine."
