HAND SEWN MASKS by Kathrine Page

Known for her allusions to place, memory, and fleeting moments of the unconscious, Rollins’ work pulsates with color and energetic lines. Her work embodies the spirit and energy of pure abstract design as invitations to explore underlying activity within the shapes. Yet, with all that color flowing in and through her canvases, Rollins is the preeminent lady in basic black and pearls. With this mask I took her persona and integrated her concept of abstract design to its basic motif. Instead of black lines flowing across the canvas, the dominant element now becomes the white line visually moves across the fabric in a play of intersected patterning.
