Update from Mimm Patterson

This past month I ventured outside my comfort zone and explored scale by working on two larger pieces - one on 20x20” cradled birch and another on 16x16” cradled birch. Both pieces incorporate a transfer process that at best is ‘hit or miss’ for me but that’s why I find it intriguing. I never know what might happen. I appreciate the intimacy and story-telling aspects of my smaller works but am excited by the challenges of working large. This piece, ‘Miklat/Bomb Shelter’, is 20x20” and based on a photograph I took while on a visit to Jerusalem in 2016.
