Shelley Parriott - Color Field Sculpture - Sun and the River

From Solid to Sheer - Material - Immaterial



In a painterly approach to sculpture overlapping sheers of powder coated perforated aluminum are imbued with light.  Airy, chromatic forms seem to appear - disappear - reappear - transform from solid to transparent - and create constantly changing patterns as the illusory sculpture interacts with the environment.
