Inside Look :: Carolyn Hazel Drake

July 21, 2023 élan chardin
Carolyn Hazel Drake.

Carolyn's work integrates textiles, ceramics, and domestic objects assembled and layered through traditional craft techniques and collage to evoke familiarity and crypticness. Her collections of handmade objects and readymades are meditations on the ways in which humans are sensitive to the surrounding atmosphere - porous to the invisible things that move through the air, whether they are viruses or wildfire smoke, or spirits and voices of those who have passed. The finished groupings create a gentle dissonance between the sacred and the mundane and lean hard towards the analog world as a tangible means of processing ephemeral, but very real experiences of death and loss.
