WALLPAPER #2

12 3/4 x 17 1/8 Eggshells / Wood / Steel Frame

“Wallpaper #2” is based on the same theme as Wallpaper, a dialogue between the artist and interior designer within me. My passion to use natural and repurposed materials speaks to the renewed interest in returning to the land and how it has influenced the current design trends. The texture of the placed eggshells evoke a similar soulfulness to that of peeling paint and it’s link to the history of a place. Playing off the idea of “weather” chipping away paint, the eggshell pattern reveals a natural motif reminiscent of vintage wallpaper. The combination of these elements conjure up feelings of nostalgia from childhood memories and are the material language of contemporary lifestyle choices.
