Float

Acrylic, aqua pencil, sumi, dirt on Tyvek — framed in shadowbox.

Image 15 x 6.5”

Framed 18 x 9.5”

Large Tyvek works are often hung unframed, similar  to our weavings,  from poles through sleeves on the back. Other collectors have chosen to float mount in shadow box frames as Sandra uses for all her works on paper.  

Though a manufactured material, the texture of Tyvek reads as fluid fibers mimicking hand made paper. Archival and extremely durable, the material allows Sandra Jo to work larger and with more abandon. I remain amused by an industrial textile as substrate in light of over 3 decades of collaboration in flatweave tapestry. The handwoven tapestry is actually a rigid structure related to machines in strange contrast to the industrial material Tyvek produced by machines yet reflecting a handmade paper vibe.
