Raylene Gorum: Volume Too: Tapings and Prints

  • Raylenegorum72dpi_large

Taping is typically used as a way to demarcate the space that's not to be painted. But in the work of Raylene Gorum, the tapes's the thing. Using a variety of adhesive materials — from strips of hardware store products to custom-made vinyl panels — Gorum creates watercolor and ink-dappled abstract landscapes halfway between architectural renderings and woodblock prints. In Volume Too, Gorum plays on her work's resemblance to the latter, with many of her canvases playfully tweaking some of the more famous prints of Japanese ukiyo-e master Utagawa Hiroshige.
