The wall soon filled up and created a very tactile and textured installation in the back of the Art Studio.Īs we moved into the next project, the papers on the wall have stayed up and they continue to be enjoyed by art studio guests who take photos in front of the wall and touch the papers to explore their crunchy quality. Some chose to attach the paper flat to the wall, others created waves, crunched into flower-like shapes, or looped the papers into chains. CURIOUS TRANSLUCENTS 29T (112gsm) Clear 27.5 X 39.3 173M GL.

COLORED TRANSLUCENT PAPER WINDOWS
Using only warm or cool colors together meant that some of the patterns were very subtle, and the light coming through the windows helped to showcase these textures to their fullest.įrom further away, the variation of color intensity and tone as the translucent papers layer over one another creates a completely different, more geometric pattern.Īs the windows filled up, we started to add papers to the back wall, inviting guests to attach them to the wall or to other papers in any way they wished. With every size and color available, youre sure to find an envelope for any occasion. Close up you can see all of the intricate stamped patterns on the paper. The effect was a glowing quilt of color in the Art Studio windows!įor the five weeks of this Everyday Art Project, we alternated using warm and cool color papers and paints each week, and the window weavings reflected this grouping of colors. Once the tension rods were full, we started taping the papers across the windows, using the frames of the window to hold the papers in place, we wove them over and under the hanging papers. We started thinking of them as textiles and the windows as a loom. Using tension rods to hang the papers down, guests added their papers by attaching them together with clear tape. We started to think of our windows as giant vertical light tables, and wondered what would happen if we attached the papers together in long strands and wove them across the windows.
We decided to make two large scale installations with guests, one on the windows and one on the back display wall.
For this project, we were particularly interested in highlighting the translucent quality of the Folia paper, and the wide range of textures that stamps could make when layered.
