RICHARD HUTTER

The Libro Fiori Suite -- Part 1 A series of small found-paper collage constructions with partially sewn edges, and shapes cut out, revealing more found-paper underneath. The suite is named after the Italian words for book and flowers, since the found papers are pages from books and the quadrilobe shapes are flower-like. The largest of these flower shapes are inspired by architectural details that I remember seeing inside a palace in Sienna, Italy. But they are also a more controlled shape developed from earlier "Japonsime" flower shapes found in my earlier work. I like to think these new flower shapes, at their smallest, are like buds just beginning to open, with the three other larger shapes showing the flower in increasing bloom.
