New Works, P4TS series


 

P4ST aka Prototype for the Stereotype,
started/invented 20 years back, I've finally revisited the 3-D Rorschach concept again with a flux based interactive user friendly work. Two variations of the same piece,
handcut out of red drafting mat. approximately 10" x 10".
Large roll of this material was about to be trashed at the Leo Castelli Gallery in NYC when I was invited to help do inventory there around 1995.
