talk to Joan
I look for harmony, balance, for the stream of clear thought that grounds me and connects me to a greater flow. It reveals itself to me through repetitive images that appear like a visual pulse, calming me and aligning me with my own heartbeat. My work is about making visual the pulse I see in the paper and feel in my core.
That I find magic in the manipulation of paper, that others might glimpse the Source through my eyes -- this is my wish, my pleasure and my plan.
resurrection These 1,000 paper cranes debuted at the C.G. Jung Center in 2002 and were also exhibited at the Chase Bank Lobby Gallery in Downtown Houston in 2006 (shown here). The piece was created from very fine Japanese and other international papers. It measures 7 1/2 ft. x 3 1/2 ft. For more photos and information on cost please contact Joan.
