HPB 2006 Information |
Valerie Buess Since her earliest childhood Valerie Buess has been fascinated by the immeasurable number of varieties of paper in everyday life. She is a passionate collector of hidden treasures that occur both in nature and in the world of paper. In her works of art she processes all kinds of used paper from everyday life, such as newspapers, magazines, telephone directories, old boxes, filter paper and wrapping paper. It is rolled, pasted, sewn, folded, wrinkled, woven and cut, which creates new pieces. These pieces are composed into a larger and more complex whole that often seems to have been created organically.  Cloud 2 (2002) |
