Bowls & Strips: The Paper Art of Linda Hagen & Sean Yore

21 works of artists Linda Hagen and Sean Yore.

Bowls & Strips – The Art of Linda Hagen & Sean Yore

This collection is an exploration in abstraction with the random textures produced by hand-made papers. We present works that are the intersection of the intentional and planned traditional expression with the unplanned, naturally occurring, randomness of the textures created by the settling of liquid pulp into simple forms. Although the pieces take on conventional forms, the surfaces are suggestive of more imaginative sensations. This is a continuation of the formal properties of the juxtaposition of colors laid over a field of random texture. This would be a post-modernist adaptation of color-field painting. In our opinion, color-field painting is not simply a brief period in American Abstract-expressionist art, but an opening to apply color sensations to contemporary moods.
