mixed media installation

Upon entering this gallery the viewer is confronted with a rack full of greeting cards and a two toned carpet. I created a work that used the preexisting quirks to my advantage. With the greeting cards I created the illusion of wind blowing into the space these cards were suspended, as though they were jumping from the display racks and blowing into the room. Pegboard, rubber bands, Styrofoam, greeting cards and yarn make up a great deal of this composition.
