scrolls series

I have carried the idea around in my head for years - the idea of the scroll as a backdrop or formal setting for an image made 'special'.

The scroll unrolled exposes its heart bare for all to see. The scroll rolled, gathered up, becomes a secret thing entirely enclosed.

Whatever materials that have fallen to my hand I've used and attempted to stay true to that 'found' quality. I have allowed the structure to be clearly exposed so that the validity of each successive step is clearly explicit.
