Firmament Abstract Acrylic and oil on cotton'Firmament' consists of perforated paper, where every hole has been punched by hand with a bookbinding needle. I am interested in how something simple as making a hole can change the whole essence of the paper. By taking something away, I add something. Holes are empty space, nothing, yet they are an important and a defining part that make the work. I am fascinated by the fine nuances in the sequence of holes and the patterns appearing on the paper.
