Sherry Cooper Art > Paper Sculptures: MY FRAGILE BIO-DEGRADABLE H'ART

There are eleven paper sculptures in my project called My Fragile bio-Degradable H'Art. Each is made of paper and is therefore very fragile as well as bio-degradable. Each sculpture is exhibited hanging from a tree limb in a public park and exposed to the elements of wind, weather and human curiosity. Here they stayed to decay and crumble engaging the notion of impermanence in art. This project celebrates the universal theme of Creation and Destruction and makes the viewer pause and contemplate how society values art made to be impermanent and temporary. This photographic record will mark the project's existence. I am grateful to the Vancouver Foundation Small Arts Grants for supporting me in this project.
