the handemade paper and natural rubber mash-module artwork “paper pulp fiction #19 – blowballs secret” – reflects the excessive global commodity trade of sustainable vegetable natural rubber. Presented as a two-dimensional six modul piece, with the oppurunity to rearranging the interchangeable mash-moduls in to a three-dimensional object or let it grow endlessly.

This piece is part of an ongoing series with the same title; paper pulp fiction.

The paper pulp is used to fabricate the material. the infinitely repeating system of interconnected modules forms the base to apply visual fiction.The english word fiction : invention, making up things , is represented in the graphic way the artwork is created.

paper pulp fiction #17 A-E-colorsynchronization

 material: cotton fiber/ handmade paper modules, linen/ lose canvas weave, gouache and graphite. Size each peace: 195 x 40 cm, 2015

Handmade, endlessly interchangeable paper modules are the image carriers for high-resolution images. A loose ensemble of color atmosphere images on a modular paper mash. The balance of the additive color mixing applied through dot pattern air-brush color, undergoes an harmonization by overlaying each specific gouache color. In contrast to the technical standards of color synchronization the decision of color harmony or disharmony concerns to the artists intuition.
