Acrylic Skin on Wood Panel
The woven forms in Orrin Whalen’s new sculpture series Woven Sunsets exude a sense of home. Whalen uses resin casts and acrylic skins — literally the skin of dried paint — to give solid sculpture a feel of texture and fluidity as he explores new themes around woven textures. The woven forms in the new series represent a sense of strength, comfort, and protection: reminding viewers that a woven basket can help carry weight, and that a handmade quilt can keep you warm.
