Metamorphosis • August 7th - 30th, 2015
Metamorphosis, a new collection by Carly Janine Mazur. In her own words,
"While working on Metamorphosis, I broke, and I', not afraid to admit it. I was completely cut down by the challenge of creating a visual theme. My first attempt at pushing through the "cocoon" left me disheartened and doubting my ability to create. The first piece in the series, then titled Limbo, fell apart emotionally and compositionally, and I felt crushed by looming deadlines, although still a ways away, dominating the horizon. After a few days trapped in limbo, I had found a seam to push against. It started with a thought:
"Metamorphosis is an organic process, following a limited set of rules and drawing from a limited set of resources."
I found there an exit from limbo and the first piece "Abyss" took shape. Drawing from the natural process that is the show's namesake, I decided upon a limited palette and an iterative design, and from there everything began to flow organically."
