Lori Victor Visual Artist

Woven Works 2019-2021 are made from my re-purposed finished paintings. My paintings have been deconstructed by hand cutting them into strips and weaving them together. No longer is the emphasis purely on the painted surface, but now the canvas itself is an integral part of a more complex work that plays with light, colour and form. By taking the painted canvas away from the confines of the stretcher, it is no longer a taut flat surface but now hangs in a gentle wave-like formation. The raw edges become another feature of the work.
