Mary Buchanan-Statement on New Work



Using icon as content and form to convey mood I venture to comment on being and feeling human. Nonspecific overlapping silhouettes are a frame of reference for greater  detail. Unfastened earrings, walkers, and symbolic crosses suggest human aid and vulnerability. Softer color, yielding materials and restorative stitching create an atmosphere of emotion and uncertainty. Being both very real and at the same time completely permeable defines the contrary and susceptible nature of our make up.

There is a lot of good stuff here - where Many layers overlap. This statement is much like one of your fiber pieces. I think you need to give the reader a word or two to catch their breath.

I agree and do best when given a low word count when submitting. More editing and clarification.
