mtlaugwalkcut_4 is one of a series of seven constructions, inspired by a walk that I took up to the summit of Mt. Laugarvatn during an artist residency in Iceland. I recorded the shape of the walk with a GPS device and then printed it out into 23 sections. I selected seven 'cuts' from the shape to influence the forms. I was also interested in how to 'round' a rectangular structure. The work is informed by the changing role of the book as the world moves from constructed forms that held and protected printed images and text to primarily digital delivery systems. Discarded book remnants are the dominant material of this work. *In Iceland, place names often reflect something of the landscape and sometimes a story that occurred there. Like Icelanders, I named this series to reference my process of working and the place that inspired it.
