Flashe and acrylic on Polystyrene
72" x 120" x 6" Collection of Westmount Asset Management
This series is a continuation of my exploration with polystyrene packing material. Considering its long life, by embellishing the forms and turning them from garbage into art objects, I seek to re-write history by assigning these forms “fossil-like” attributes.

I want viewers to feel much like an archeologist as they view the work; pondering the use and importance of the forms and being able, occasionally, to recognize an imprint of the original object this packing material once cradled!
