2007 foundart series Swiitzerland in progress

2007 foundart series Swiitzerland in progress - the next 12

there are 6 boards of approximately A4 size cut into approximately 12 biz card sizes to make up the FOUND ART series ... one was discarded as 'lost' -unable to rescue it as a successful piece ... so today, i have ended up with 75 pieces - no more now ... the series has evolved to its end and i am out of time ... gotta pack now !

this is the third board ... keep in touch to see how the individual pieces go - i will post them as i lose them (to be found) ...

the original collage was created in 1999 ... i placed a vermillion border around the piece to take it to the edge of the board. and this time rather than just working white over the colour and texture, i worked black over the colour and texture first... and then white over that ... creating black borders around the vase/pottery shapes.

I'm a curator and now it is amongst my own little collection of artworks at home. My friends thought it was quite funny; I am now looking for interesting works so much that I come across them on city strolls and upon the ground. I thought this was a great pro...

FOUNDART SERIES - since 2007

FOUNDART SERIES This is now the blog for ALL my foundart series. I have migrated all the previous blogs (3) created into this one place for all my foundart series. I will create little pointers and pages that may help to delineate one series from another and other types of sub-files. Bringing it all together into one place online. It began with the idea of 'making' artworks whilst travelling which turned into making a heap of small artworks before leaving, 'losing' them on my travels and photographing them where they were placed. The back of each piece had a label that told the finder they had found an original piece of art and to log into the website to tell of their find. The idea morphed into its own way of 'being' as time went on. I first started doing foundart in 2007 when I travelled via Melbourne & Hong Kong to visit my daughter in Zurich, Switzerland which also took us on a tangent to Umbria Italy. The blog was called 'From Tassi...
