"Each puzzle is a drawing. Each suggests a doorway, window, an archway -- each suggests the possibility of coming undone. They are secrets, interior excavations, made from any material, and packaged in cardboard. Like books, they are intimate, held, handled, explored, then closed and put away."
BIO:
Anna Hepler is based in Greenfield, Massachusetts. Her work, which is both hand-held and architectural in scale, overturns first impressions – wire forms flatten into drawings, clay impersonates metal, plywood coils like rope, plastic inhales and exhales. Hepler values embarrassment, uncertainty, blunder, and fragility as active agents in her studio process.
