Still Life No.93 A179652 having been created from antiqueChris Wheeler's art is a visual record of events; he tries to capture "moments of perfection" once they show themselves. Showcasing modernist conventions including simple imagery and minimalist color design, this mixed media collage was crafted on paper handmade from cotton, mulberry, and straw and mounted on a wood board; acrylic paints as well as freehand cut shapes applied via a little known wheat paste technique make this a truly striking work.
