Fractured Net Series, 2011- ongoing
Watercolor, ink, gouache on paper

Starting with a real net, this series is made through a complex process of tracing and fracturing using three large glass panels. The chaos of the fractured composition can be slowly pieced back together as one intuitively perceives the underlying system behind it.
