Bubble Wrap

Furthering my investigations of materials as I explore the concept of immigration I next turned to bubble wrap. I chose this material to indicate the packing up of one life to begin another in a new country.

bubble-wrap-ink-green — Cut into strips and inked green with fuchsia.

braided — Braided strips.

inked-melted2 — Inked red and melted under a flame

inked-melted — Inked red, melted under the over grill.

bubble-wrap-ink-red — Red ink, looks like blood. Like the blood, sweat and tears that goes with immigrating.

bubble-wrap — The green and red strips merged together with extreme melting under an open flame.
