Inspired from nature, these sculptures represent my interpretation of our natural and ephemeral world and become 3 dimensional paintings. Intuitively I begin a dance with chance and am challenged to manipulate the material in various stages to arrive at my final vision. This vision is to recreate the beauty of nature and suspend it in light.
Process
Jennifer Walker’s process involves tedious multiple castings and layering of pigmented resins. Throughout the process, she maintains a translucent manipulation of both coloration and light. In the final process, the surfaces are highly polished to reveal the inner atmosphere.
