Sculptural Handmade Paper Lamps (Canceled)

Presented by Morgan Art of Papermaking Conservatory and Educational Foundation at The Morgan Art of Papermaking Conservatory and Educational Foundation

Canceled due to COVID-19.

Expand on your understanding of paper as a medium by creating translucent sculptural works. This process involves creating an armature with willow and cloth. Next, layers of pulp made from Eastern plant fibers (i.e. kozo or gampi) are applied. When the pulp is dry, the cloth is removed, leaving a strong, translucent paper wedded to the willow support.

About the instructor:
Tony Carlone is interested in creating local plant-based art by using the natural environment as a source of inspiration, raw material, and the beginnings of a social conversation. The works he makes uses forms that echo themselves in the natural world and attempts to explore the symbiotic relationship between humans and their environment.
