Friday Favorite: Sandra Pearce

5/6/2016

0 Comments

 
​This Friday’s featured artist is Sandra Pearce and her book entitled Entomophobia. She incorporated atlas pages to make envelopes with hexagon windows in which she inserted insect imagery printed on organza. The book is bound with piano hinges and closes into a hexagon shape. The hexagon shape refers to beehive combs.

She writes:
The structure and images I have used in this book express the idea that humans have significantly changed the global landscape and thus impacted on insect populations. The title of the book 'Entomophobia' alludes to our general attitude towards insects an inconvenience and nuisance within our homes and gardens. Perhaps we should be also considering the importance of insects in the natural world, where they are part of the food chain, help break down plant material and of course pollinate plants.
