Cardboard Cube #3 That's How the Light Gets In
Kate Mackay (NSW)
Artist Statement
My work is constructed from recycled cardboard and yarn. Simple cardboard cubes have been painted and tied up with yarn, these are then tied together to create a single structure. The name refers both to the 'imperfection' of the loosely constructed cube as well as the straightforward construction of the object that allows light to pass through.
