2007
pencil, ink, wax, paper, thread
21" x 26" x 11"The Center for Book Arts asked artists to make work for their show unContained Vessels. I decided to take emotional upheaval and sorted it into 3 categories of loose, stacked and crumpled writings. From left to right the bags cannot contain: 1) things to keep hidden, 2) doubts, 3) random floaty things.Scrap drawings
2004
pencil, ink, dry pigment, paint, metal clip, pin on recycled paper in cardboard box
12" x 9" x 4"While collaborating on a project in Matanzas, Cuba, I was given pieces of recycled paper. When I returned to NY, I was thinking about the contrasts between a culture of scarcity where art is integrated into daily life and a culture of relative abundance where art is often a separate part of society. Text and drawing on tiny scraps and larger rolled pieces of the Cuban paper are inside a corrugated cardboard box from the US. Each piece can be removed, opened rearranged and re-packed.All images copyright of Anne Gilman 1990-2024. An icompendium Site
