Stark was born in Miami in 1983. Stark attended Maryland Institute College of Art, then studied abroad at the program at the Center for Art and Culture in Aix-en-Provence in France. Finding out when she got to France that art supplies were more expensive there then she thought that they where going to be. She begain to look for something inexpensive she and found construction paper.
Stark works with the most expensive paper that she can find to make her unique works of art. She uses only her eye and her hand to cut out her piece. She feels that if she uses a time saving technology to produce her work it would make the work not have the same meaning.
Process can indeed affect meaning.
ReplyDeleteIMO this is sculpture and not craft. The main reason is the intent. She is an artist that went to a top 5 art school.
