TEXTURE STUDY - Arbura
This series explores organic, natural surfaces vs imposed structure. The textured surface of a tree divided into 42 modular units serves as the foundation of the work. Each 8 x 8 cm square retains the raw detail of bark, while the underlying materials shift between concrete, wood, plaster, and jesmonite... a contradiction between surface and substance. By translating a naturally occurring form into a grid, a system associated with human order and logic, viewers consider how nature can be reinterpreted, recontextualized, and reorganized. This work reflects an ongoing interest in the way organic elements can be transformed through repetition, segmentation, and material contrast.
