ARTIST RESEARCH: Jennifer Davies

  • Jennifer Davies is a paper maker, sculptor and constructor, using hand made Japanese paper manipulated, twisted, collaged and constructed to create forms that explore the materialities of fibrous material.
  • She often collages and constructs with both hand made paper and pulp.
  • Often combining stitch and dye.
  • Heavily inspired by natural textures and materials.

  • Davies work has made me consider focusing more on natural inspiration, working similarly with construction and collage? This would work well to make my work look less two dimensional ( I want to explore manipulation of paper, with more of an interest in pushing it into 3D).
  • It could be interesting to work with collage and multimedia, previously I have used stitch in my paper work which creates another textural dimension as well as increase the depth detail.
