Visual Description of Artwork
All the repurposed paper in different shades of white used to make White and Shadow #2 came from SCRAP San Francisco. Each of the 53 boxes is constructed by using stiff paper, a ruler, scissors and glue. Each box is filled with paper forms that were either cut, folded, rolled, punched or scored. There was no plan other than making boxes in one-inch increments. Lilli and Aiko worked separately to make the boxes of varying sizes. They did not see each other’s boxes until they came together to fit the boxes into a large square, just like fitting pieces of a puzzle together. White and Shadow #2 looks like a circus of paper, light and shadow.
