Installation Design Workshops: Free to Bunnell Members (renew for 2019!) or $50 for all 4 half-days My hand-cut paper installations are both a marker of the division between our familiar spaces and forgotten, sacred ones,- a sheer curtain to be gingerly lifted as we step across the threshold – casting broken light onto the clearing as we draw it back.
