“Paper Wins”

Posted in Art, Jon Crispin by joncrispin on 12/04/2013

My friend Charlotte X.C. Sullivan produced this lovely piece called “Paper Wins”

It is based on the idea of the “emotional complexity of choice” with the game Rock, Paper, Scissors in mind.  She molded the papers over “river-smoothed” rocks and placed them on the floor of a large barn/artist’s space at Bramble Hill Farm in Amherst.

It became somewhat of a performance piece when she was de-installing it and the giant fan needed some help in blowing the papers away.

    What a great space, the installation is beautiful.
    The series of photographs you chose are wonderful, ending with a strong portrait of the artist.
