Summary:
These beautiful landscape paintings are the artist's personal "maps" of time spent within nature, formal equivalents to her experience of moving through and perceiving outdoor environments. The paintings are created from natural materiasl - clay, fiber, and pigments - where shapes, patterns, and forms are revealed over time through natural processes, such as evaporation and the force of gravity drawing water-based pigments across sloped canvasses. Mattes will also install an evaporation pool within the gallery. Liquid clay will be poured into a clay basin on the gallery floor. As the water evaporates from the clay over days and weeks, the various clays used will create distinct cracking and tonal patterns. Page [2]
