shade and Hex

officially (i decided), today is the first day of shade this year
* * * * *
and, i'm fixing a troublesome piece of art, Hex:

Hex, in it's not-right-form (charcoal, burnt paper, Lamb of God poster)

i've since reconstituted the Lamb of God poster into a grey & speckled ball paper-mache. i think this was a premium decision. the final form will be less drawing, more sculpture. i need to make a mount for it - to come off the wall like a flag - but in the meantime, here are some referential artworks for what i'm planning.

Haim Steinbach - Untitled (cabbage, pumpkin, pitchers) (mixed media construction) 1987

Min Song - (foreground) Untitled (powder-coated steel) 2010, (on wall) Untitled (Cockatoos) (inkjet print, paint, bolts, washers) 2010

Carol Bove - W.A. (shells, steel, concrete and bronze) 2010

Dan Gunn - Constellation No. 2 (acrylic and watercolor on canvas) 2009
       
 Irena Knezevic - Omophagia
