Artwork Description:   This is a large piece, comprised of thousands of rolls of hand-painted and tied spools of paper. Hundreds of hours went into the creation of "Suspended Submersion", beginning with cutting large sheets of fine white paper into strips of varying widths. Each strip was then painted, rolled up and hand-tied with lime green thread. All those little spools were then affixed to the lovely background sheet of variegated green handmade paper. The overall image is up to you to decide - are the red pieces being drawn down into the bottom of the piece, or are they floating up towards the top? Depends on how you look at it!
