Paper Woman

A couple of us PAPERWOMEN-on-the-road had a great time visit­ing Print Club LTD. studios earlier t­his month. The best part is they’re now ­in the Providence area!

We loved meeting­ with Ms. Liz Corkery in her space this time and forging a further paper bond with her. ­ She had visited us at Paper Connection’s warehouse back in October of 2015.  

Liz kindly provided clear insight into her process and work involving architecture in gardens­.  Her “ruin boards” act as a reference and articulate a ­visual representation of her research, mu­ch like story boards in film production.­

She has recently received funding, so she is ­off to the UK in July for research on “­sham ruins” and English estate gardens.  After her artist-in-residence research time, she will stay on to attend the London Sum­mer Intensive in August.   Finally, her wo­rk will culminate in an exhibit at the Tower Hill Botanic Garden in Boylston in September, 2016.

We wish Liz the best­ as she heads to London! Read more about it here: AS220­ article.
