Laurene Krasny Brown - Fine & Applied Paper Art
Never do I intend to underestimate what can become of a piece of paper. For the past eleven years, paper has seduced me into its employ, with assistance from paint, string, wire and hardware store finds. It’s hard to pin down exactly why working with these simple materials proves so irresistible. In part I think it’s their flexibility, helping to produce in one form or another my intimate versions of order in the universe. They cooperate. To me they also are beautiful. Simplicity carries over into the forms I choose. As a student of classical piano, I find intriguing parallels between the elaboration of a melodic theme and that of a geometric form, both of which can be reinvented and intensified in a dozen rhythmic variations, all closely related, never identical. Valuing an economy of means in materials and their design enables
me to savor the details of things. I ask my work what change is worth making from one statement to the next. If I set clear boundaries, the possibilities for expression within seem endless.
