Just writing to share that I am having a <a href="http://nevercontentedthings.blogspot.com/2013/06/jewelry-sale.html"><span style="color: windowtext; text-decoration: none; text-underline: none;">paper jewelry
sale</span></a>, with the goal of raising money to afford materials to begin
producing jewelry again. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br />
Here's some background, from the profile description for the <a href="https://www.etsy.com/people/nevercontentedthings?ref=pr_profile"><span style="color: windowtext; text-decoration: none; text-underline: none;">Etsy store</span></a>:</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br />
Never Contented Things was created in 2009 by Erin (yours truly) and Zoë, best
friends and former roommates from Chicago, based on designs found in some of my
fine art work. At the time it was a side business for both of us artists, who
met while we were earning BFAs in photography from Columbia College
Chicago. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br />
In 2010 I began graduate school to earn my MFA, and ultimately moved to
Philadelphia to earn an MFA in Book Arts and Printmaking from the University of
the Arts, forcing the company to go on hiatus. Zoë stayed in Chicago where she
works as a photographer for an auction house, and still creates her own artwork
(often printmaking). We miss each other terribly. Be sure to take a look at her
fabulous photography, which can be found on her <a href="http://www.zoebare.com/"><span style="color: windowtext; text-decoration: none; text-underline: none;">website</span></a>.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br />
in May of 2013 I graduated with my MFA, and am now excited to return to Never
Contented Things as a solo venture, joining the wonderful craft community here
in Philadelphia. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br />
Never Contented Things consists of handmade works, predominantly paper jewelry.
Some of the aesthetic is shared with my own <a href="http://www.erinpaulson.com/"><span style="color: windowtext; text-decoration: none; text-underline: none;">fine art work</span></a>. I am willing to do custom
work, so if you like the work but don't find what you're looking for, let me
know! </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br />
Also, please follow the Never Contented Things <a href="http://nevercontentedthings.blogspot.com/"><span style="color: windowtext; text-decoration: none; text-underline: none;">blog</span></a>. Don't forget to look
at Zoë's amazing artwork and drop her a line as well! </div>

Below are some images from my thesis show at Rosenwald Wolf Gallery at the University of the Arts. The closing reception was April 26th, and we had an excellent turnout (thanks again, everyone!). My friends and classmates <a href="http://khardy.com/">Karen Hardy</a> and <a href="http://www.sarahhulsey.com/">Sarah Hulsey</a> were in the gallery with me (be sure to check out their work, it is amazing). Below are some photos taken during the opening; unless otherwise stated, the photos are by my classmate <a href="http://mouzhu.tumblr.com/">Mou Zhu</a>. </div>

...and now, I have graduated, school is done, and I am back in reality. Fortunately I am also back working part-time at the <a href="http://hsp.org/">Historical Society of Pennsylvania</a>, as a conservation technician, and I couldn't be happier about this! Philly, and the wonderful people I have met so far in it, have been wonderful to me.</div>

As my thesis show came down today, I figured it was time to share my thesis animations online! You may find them on my <a href="http://www.erinpaulson.com/">website</a>. Let me know what you think.<br />
<br />
Thanks to all of my friends, family, classmates, faculty, and my wonderful thesis committee. Couldn't have done it without you.<br />
<br />
Some photos from the thesis exhibition to come soon. </div>

A couple of weeks ago I had the pleasure of taking a platen press workshop with Philadelphia artist Donna Globus. I had never printed on a platen press before, and it was a lot of fun! The workshop yielded roughly 100 business cards - it was a 2 color, 2-up process, with hand-set type. The fonts were Goudy Openface and Baskerville.<br />
<br />
Thanks to Donna I finally have a hand-printed business card, and not a moment too soon. The platen press requires a lot of hand-eye coordination, and with both hands. Yet another time when I was grateful for my skills driving a stick shift; it really wasn't too different!<br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">(also, please excuse my quick images... I just shot these really fast at my work bench.)</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
These are a few images of the paper I have been using for my pressure plate to make the prints for <i>Once the wondrous vastness filled us (Comet of Coggia, 1874). </i>The paper is handmade kozo from <a href="http://www.printeresting.org/2012/07/31/dispatches-from-south-korea-jang-ji-bang/">Jang Ji Bang</a> outside Seoul, South Korea.<i> </i>You can see the transition in the embroidery over time - growing as the image is embroidered, and vanishing as I cut the embroidery away. Also notice the crease that has formed in the paper, due to the impact from the pressure of the Vandercook.</div>

I am happy to report that yesterday I finally finished printing the pressure prints for this project! I don't know the exact count yet, but I have something like 500 pressure prints for the two animations. Also we will have the postcards for our thesis shows soon; if you'd like me to mail you one, email me your address at epaulson.photo@gmail.com .<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">

I will have a blog as part of my website too, but unfortunately it does not contain an rss feed as far as I can tell, so I will still be maintaining this version of watermelon sugar. I may post different things on that blog; I maintain the prerogative to decide that at whim. </div>

I'm working and working towards my thesis installation date of April 12th. The closing reception will be April 26th. I'll be showing at the Rosenwald-Wolf Gallery with my friends and classmates, <a href="http://hardyart.blogspot.com/">Karen Hardy</a> and <a href="http://www.sarahhulsey.com/">Sarah Hulsey</a>, who are both amazing artists. More info to come later.<br />
<br />
I have the best thesis committee ever, my dream thesis committee, and I couldn't be happier!<br />
<a href="http://www.danielheyman.com/">Daniel Heyman</a><br />

<a href="http://www.marysmull.com/">Mary Smull</a><br />
<br />
I'm still working on Mondays in conservation and it is just what I need right now. A day of quietude to clear my head, always delivering small breakthroughs while I am away from the studio, repairing these beautiful manuscripts that are inspiration in and of themselves.<br />
<br />
This semester I have the privilege of an independent study in tapestry with <a href="http://www.warrenseelig.com/">Warren Seelig</a>. The process is slow, but meditative, so of course I love it. It is my hope that the future will bring many tapestries.<br />
<br />
When I am in the studio, this is the main thing I'm doing:<br />
<br />
embroider --> pressure print --> embroider --> pressure print<br />
repeat. times infinity.<br />
<br />
Our end of semester visiting critic is one of my favorite artists, <a href="http://andreadezso.com/">Andrea Dezso</a>. This simultaneously makes me outrageously excited, and terrified beyond speech.<br />
<br />
More to come later - possibly even an image or two!<br />

I have been busy with the stop motion animation that will be a large part of my thesis. It will be a long while still before I am ready to share the actual animation, but I thought I would share a still from it so you can start to get an idea.<br />

This image is from the part of the project entitled <i>Now we fill the wondrous vastness (Space Debris, 2012). </i>It is a pressure print of an embroidery of fishing line into paper. </div>

The exhibition of work by the Book Arts MFA students and the undergraduate Fibers students in conjunction shares its opening reception.<br />
<br />
Read more about the Tawney exhibition <a href="http://www.uarts.edu/events/alumni/2013/01/lenore-tawney-wholly-unlooked">here</a> and the student exhibition <a href="http://www.uarts.edu/events/alumni/2013/01/mfa-book-arts-and-craftsfibers-exhibition">here</a>. The panel discussion will be of particular interest to all those familiar with her work. I am thrilled to be a part of this show and am incredibly impressed by the work of my fellow students; each piece is different in its own right, yet honors Tawney through the use of her materials.<br />
<br />
Below are images of my piece installed as part of the exhibition. I'm much happier with this installation than the incarnation at our WIP show this past fall.<br />

Earlier this month I visited Mumbai, Maharashtra, India to attend the wedding of my beloved sister, Shannon, to my new brother-in-law, Sachin. The trip was unlike anything I have ever experienced, and I am so happy that I was able to be there to share in the magnificent ceremonies and to meet our new family! Here are some of my favorite photographs of my own from the trip, excluding the ones captured at the wedding ceremonies.</div>

A few entries back I <a href="http://jerinpaulson.blogspot.com/2012/10/lenore-tawney.html">posted</a> about some of the Lenore Tawney materials I received, and that I would soon be making an embroidery piece with the small round boxes. Here are a couple of images, captured by the lovely <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 0.5in;">Zoë Bare</span>, taken during the opening of our work in progress exhibition on October 19th. I will be reworking the installation, and future exhibitions will no longer include the shelf - all of the pieces will be meant for the wall from now on. </div>

This piece is currently taking up the majority of my time and energy, as I am finally creating my first-ever embroidery animation. I cannot wait to finish it and share it with you! </div>

Lastly I would like to share my excitement that my piece showing at the <a href="http://ccabedminster.org/enjoy/exhibits/exhibitscurrent-exhibition/">Center for Contemporary Art</a>, <i><a href="http://jerinpaulson.blogspot.com/2012/08/from-them-or-you-or-stars-and-their.html">from them or you or the stars and their voices</a></i>, was awarded third place! Thank you very much to the juror, Edwin Ramoran.Erinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00402140236580157088noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2521647422687696212.post-4051511615432292892012-11-03T12:44:00.003-05:002012-11-03T13:15:36.034-05:00Manual Autonomy: Mary SmullThis past Thursday was the opening reception for the show my friend <a href="http://www.sarahhulsey.com/">Sarah Hulsey</a> and I curated - a solo exhibition of the needlepoint work of artist <a href="http://www.marysmull.com/">Mary Smull</a>. Her gallery talk was presented in a question and answer format, with Sarah and I having a conversation with her about her work. I can hardly describe to you how happy we both were to share Mary's work with the UArts community, and to share in this experience with Mary. Please take a moment to look through her website to study her amazing work further.<br />
<br />
Thank you to the UArts Alumni Association for their generous funding of the exhibition and event, to our professor <a href="http://juliannafoster.com/home.html">Julianna Foster</a> who guided us along the way and suggested Mary's work to us in the first place, to our professor Mary Phelan for accepting our proposal for the gallery space, and to everyone who made it out for the reception!<br />

<i><br /></i></div>
<div class="p1">
<i>Manual Autonomy </i>presents two rule‐based needlepoint projects by Philadelphia artist Mary Smull. These works take needlepoint craft kits and deliberately subvert many of the original intensions of the kit, exploring the complicated relationship between hobbyist craft and fine art.</div>
<div class="p1">
In the series <i>Conceptual Needlepoint</i>, Smull accepts the constraints of a needlepoint kit’s provided colors, but defies the kit’s intentions by formulating her own rules for the application of the colors, thus turning a prescribed pattern into an exploration of autonomy. In <i>Finished Works </i>Smull beings with abandoned, partially finished needlepoint projects, and then completes them — but using only white thread. These pieces preserve the structure of the original intension, but result in images full of hiatuses and encroaching blank fields.</div>

<div class="p1">
Mary Smull holds a BFA from the University of the Arts in Fibers/Craft and an MFA in Fiber from Cranbrook Academy of Art. Smull’s work has been exhibited recently at Houston Center for Contemporary Craft; Public Fiction, Los Angeles, CA; and the Institute of Contemporary Art, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA. Her project <i>SPUN: Society for the Prevention of </i><i>Unfinished Needlepoint </i>was recently presented at the Philadelphia Museum of Art in conjunction with the exhibition <i>Craft Spoken Here</i>. She teaches in the Fiber Department at Maryland Institute College of Art in Baltimore, MD.</div>

<br />
My pieces <a href="http://portfolio.colum.edu/erinpaulson/work/6049/102996">I was screaming and no one could hear.</a> and <a href="http://jerinpaulson.blogspot.com/2012/01/what-is-otherwise-lost.html">what is otherwise lost</a> will be included in the <i>Modest in Scale</i> exhibition at the <a href="http://www.abecedariangallery.com/">Abecedarian Gallery</a> in Denver, Colorado.<br />
There will be a reception on November 15, from 6 - 8 pm, and the exhibition will run through December 15th.<br />
<br />
<br />
My piece <a href="http://jerinpaulson.blogspot.com/2012/08/after-sun-burned-her-eyes-she-found-her.html">After the sun burned her eyes she found her way</a> has been accepted to <i>Craft Forms 2012</i> at the <a href="http://www.wayneart.org/">Wayne Art Center</a> in Wayne, Pennsylvania.<br />
There will be a preview party on Friday, November 30 from 6 - 10 pm, and the exhibition will run through January 26th.<br />

Amazingly, this year, 5 years after her death, the Lenore Tawney foundation has donated much of the materials from her studio to students at UArts and MICA.<br />
Us book arts grads were fortunate enough to share in this gift! We are meant to create work with Lenore's materials for an exhibition that will take place at the end of the year in conjunction with exhibitions of her work here at UArts and at MICA.<br />
<br />
I have been quietly working away on some embroideries greatly inspired by Lenore's work to be housed in the following miniature boxes I received. Each is only 1 1/4" in diameter. These will be seen in our Work in Progress show, the opening for which is October 19th. More info on that later!<br />

I also received this odd wooden piece, which after discussion with one of my advisors I now realize was a device to form cigars. There must have been an original adjoining female piece. I'm not sure what I will do with this yet, but I'm really transfixed by the landscape nature of the cracked line running across it.</div>

At the Paper and Book Intensive in Ox-bow this past May, I also took tool making with <a href="http://www.shannaleino.com/">Shanna Leino</a>, where we learned to make our own bookbinding tools out of elk bone, and also stamping tools out of steel. I fell in love with the elk bone process, and probably would have been perfectly content to make tools the entire two weeks. These are some of the tools I completed; I had two more awls, but I have already given them to much deserving recipients as thank you gifts. The tool on the right I think I'll use as an awl specifically for punching leather; the end is quite sharp. </div>

My third class at PBI was paper marbling with <a href="http://www.ashevillebookworks.com/2010/01/steve-pittelkow/">Steve Pittelkow</a>. He is a superb marbler and I came home with about 40 sheets that I had marbled myself, which is wonderful. I'm excited to use them in our bookbinding homework over the next school year! These are a few of my favorites that I produced.</div>

</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: start;">As part of our trip to Seoul, we spent a couple of days in a coastal town named Gyeong-Ju. This was one of my favorite parts of the trip, as it included not only seeing wonderful temples from the Silla dynasty, but also a temple stay at a Buddhist temple, Golgulsa. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: start;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I had read about similar experiences, but never dreamt that I would get to experience something like this myself. The temple was so beautiful, and I felt such reverence for the place, that I did not take a single photo the entire time we were there. We were in bed by 10 pm, and awoken at 4 in the morning to walk up an incredibly steep hill for morning chants, followed by walking meditation and a timed breakfast ceremony. A few of us made the treacherous trek up the rocky steps of the mountain to see the Buddha carved into the mountain from the 5th century. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Fortunately, one of our tour guides, Semi, was photographing the whole time! Thanks so much to Semi for sharing the photos with all of us, they are a treasure. </div>

This project came to mind in a solid form - text, concept, and contents all together. Vera was my grandmother on my mother's side.
