Traces of Time and Change


I read the article: Traces of Time and Change: Kim Youngae - by Cassandra Fusco and it presented some interesting ideas that I may try and work into this project. The New Zealand based artist, Kim Youngae, uses cotton-pulp casting to exactingly recreate building debris, such as chunks of plaster and wrought iron gate pieces, remafde in the cotton pulp molds. Her work references history and the cultural significance of these building materials. Unfortunately, all the imagesin the library provided pdf were high-contrasted to near death by the scanning process and I cannot find any better images online. Any ideas where I can get images of Youngae's work to share on this blog?
