Mottled II
-
Description
Samuelle Green’s large-scale sculptures reference the complex systems inherent in nature from which we borrow and take for granted: a beehive, a bird’s nest, a spider’s web. Constructed from paper and glue, wood and wire, and other everyday items, each work is a study in biomimicry, and each one is an otherworldly environment in and of itself—of growth and decay, order and chaos. In Motted II, Green lays bare her materials and process, creating an intricate textural form of light and shadow, imbued with ephemeral beauty open to interpretation by the viewer.

Artist
Samuelle Green
Known for her “paper caves,” Samuelle Green references the interaction between human-made and non-human visual languages. She prepurposes discarded material such as paper to highlight the forms and details of nature which are often overlooked. Inspired by the natural world, Green makes sculptures reminiscent of beehives, rock formations and animal scales.
