On and On

On and On is made from antique Japanese books. What excites me most about this piece is the range of detail across the covers. As you look around, you start to notice the details. There are stamps of geese and a small bird, remnants of a child’s stickers, a hand-drawn face, handwriting, and bits of arabesque, floral, and wave patterns.

The covers move through many shades of blue and white. I wanted to make a work in those colors because that combination shows up so often in antique textiles and objects.

Blue and white has also been around me for a long time. My grandmother collected blue and white Chinese jars, and my mom collected antique Blue Willow dishes.

On and On measures 50" round and is mounted on a custom maple wood board with a French cleat. It was made in 2024.
