I have long been interested in the idea of objects holding the past while hiding their past. My latest sculpture in the Heirlooms series, titled Beginning at the End, features 123 feet of heavy rope knotted within the interior space of a child’s cradle. On the cradle’s foot I have painted a pinecone in an effort to further the concept of an heirloom and to recognize the pinewood’s beginning and its end, while it holds our own beginnings and ends. j.frede - 2017Beginning at the End is being shown as part of a group show titled “SquigAlert” at Cordesa Fine Art in Los Angeles.
