anne boudreau sculpture: elements page: elements This body of work was made during a three-month residency at 701 Center for Contemporary Art in Columbia, South Carolina. The four suspended fabric constructions are a slight departure from what I had been making. The pieces are larger in scale, more basic in form, and visually lighter weight. The tea-stained silk organza is transparent and provides a gestural quality. Over the years, I continue to revisit the natural elements (water, fire, air, earth) as a thematic base.
