About the Item

Esther Traugot obscures natural objects within hand-crocheted coverings, in a curious and aesthetically intriguing attempt to preserve nature and prevent its decay. She refers to these coverings as ‘bandages’ and ‘cozies’. Her work examines not only ideas of time and decomposition, but also of labor, as every piece is painstakingly crafted by the artist’s own hand. “I create works that play between seeing oneself as an intrinsic part of the natural landscape, as well as an observer of it,” she says. By immersing herself in physical interactions with these objects, she imbues them with a new sense of humanity and bridges the gap between natural and artificial.

By Marie Laforey

Located in New York, NY

Marie Laforey is a self-taught artist based in New York, US who maintains a sustainable art practice using primarily organic material. Laforey enjoys the tactility of working with organic mediums and learning how to craft preserved moss, clay, feathers and other natural elements into beautiful abstract compositions. Primarily inspired by nature, repetition, patterns, texture and geometry are essential elements that are omnipresent in her works. About Lapis and Flos series: Laforey recent ceramic works are unique pieces that alter in patterns to give an illusion of movement and depth by using clay’s potential for building sculptural dimension. The repetitive use of a unique element, the circle is centered to her work. The circle has often been associated with the female and to Mother Earth. It has no beginning and no end, it is the whole, the essence of things. It symbolizes the ongoing energy found in nature. Laforey’s Lapis mural ceramic series...
