HEATHER L. COREY

Artist Statement

Connections form in childhood that remain, later to surface and influence our choices as adults. I recall gardening with my mother as a child, when I would collect flowers and press them. Years later, my interest in plants and making paper from plants continues. Sculpting with paper that I make by hand, is a reflection of my willingness to embrace the unknown, which leads me to the medium’s true intentions. Being a creative thinking and doer means living a creative, balanced life.  In the end, we can say that what we created was our own.
