This was EXTREMELY impressive. It is not a worn leather purse but actual ceramic sculpture. I literally would not believe it if I could see inside it and see it’s completely ceramic

Across the light-colored wooden floor of the exhibit space, lay two approximately 10’ columns, crossed at one end - as one might imagine a giant to lay down his chopsticks. Each column is made of towering stacks of square pieces of newspaper, about 6” x 6”, which have been soaked to activate a natural adhesion. Then they are skewered at the four corners - the whole length of the column - and connected by steel rods, nuts and washers. The artist leaves these pieces outside in the harsh Montana winter, in snow and subzero temperatures, to take on the patina of faded wood and, according to the installation signage, “. . . the impermanence of its source material (current events in the newspapers) and, like our bodies, is subject to inevitable deterioration.” *********** Why? I’m continually attracted by patina and patterns in nature, art, and the world around me - observed in the wearing-down and transformation of surfaces by nature and human contact. Hunt’s creative work ‘Floor’ also included an element of fascination for me: that transition from the size overkill of four steel rods and nuts through a single 6” x 6” piece of newspaper at one end of the column, to becoming absolutely appropriate connectors at the other end of the column. Out of the thousands of installations I’ve seen, for some reason, this is one of those that’s stayed with me.
This photo from above the installation on the wood floor in the corner of the gallery with white walls, gives a better perspective of the two columns, and a small 10” by 10” satchel bag placed in proximity is provided for scale.
#PortlandArtMuseum exhibited the American artist, Kate Hunt’s, ‘Floor’ piece nearly a decade ago.

At the fantastic expanded Portland Art Museum. Grab the What’s on View Guide it’s more useful than the map. But grab the map too. #portlandartmuseum

Man in a green hat looking at a Late Period Mark Rothko painting.
