STATEMENT<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sheri R. Klein\u2019s collage works on paper explore concepts of fragmentation, hybridity and transformation with references to imaginary architecture, objects and the social landscape. Her collages embrace relationships of the geometric\/organic, fragments\/whole, color\/form, the waking\/dream and utilize processes of layering and juxtaposition of text, color, and pattern. Small works on paper often begin with a line, a brushstroke, a doodle, a drawn shape, or a small fragment of paper in a process that evolves into a fusion of forms that often inform paintings and fabric designs. The aesthetic quality of imperfection is reflected throughout the collages in the use of torn papers, and in the incorporation of hand-drawn elements. Historical influences on the collages range from Surrealism to the Zen aesthetic of wabi-sabi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
