Net Work/ Capture

Inspiration

“Net Work/Capture shows a black imprint of netting on a white background, and some lively blue shapes and splashes.  Ever since I picked up a torn fishing net at a beach in Cape Cod, I have been drawn to nets, both as tools and as subjects.  Initially, it was about a simple dichotomy: To capture—or to be caught?  As I continued working with nets and explored different techniques, Art began to inform Life.  Each process led to a different result, giving new meaning to the net.”
