Icons

An Icon can be defined as a person or object regarded as either a representative symbol or a thing worthy of veneration. My ICON series features molded paper forms in which an object, often a piece of electronics equipment, has been shipped. To me these molded forms evoke images of the sublime - figures ranging from angels to Mayan gods. Inspired by a trip to Greece several years ago when I was captivated by the Byzantine architecture found in their churches, I strive to recapture their heavily gilded surfaces using modern disposable packaging materials. Made entirely from cardboard and molded paper, these ICONS present images of the ancient world within a modern context.
