Vellum

Featuring eight images that explore the delicate interplay of light, form, and texture through the artful manipulation of vellum paper. Vellum is a project that highlights graceful flowing curves juxtaposed with sharp, intentional edges, creating a dynamic tension between softness and structure. Through carefully crafted compositions, Vellum transforms a simple material into a sculptural statement, celebrating abstraction’s beauty through composition and craftsmanship.

Light’s pivotal role in shaping each composition is at the heart of the series. As it filters through the delicate layers of vellum, subtle tonal variations emerge, forming gradients that transition seamlessly from deep, saturated tones to soft, glowing highlights. This interplay between light and material enhances the sense of depth and dimensionality, striking a delicate balance between transparency and opacity. The result is an ethereal quality—both bold and delicate, structured yet fluid—where light itself becomes an essential element of the visual experience.

Further interplay between the rigid edges and flowing curves creates a compelling dialogue between precision and spontaneity, seamlessly blending structure with fluidity. This contrast invites a reconsideration of form, revealing how vellum—a seemingly simple and utilitarian material—can take on sculptural qualities, challenging traditional perceptions of both materiality and artistic expression.

Ultimately, Vellum is a meditation on transformation—where material becomes sculpture, light shapes form, and simplicity evolves into elegance. By embracing the delicate balance between control and spontaneity, the series encourages viewers to explore the nuances of shape and illumination, proving that even the most unassuming materials can transcend their function to become works of art.
