Industrial Aged (48×36 inches) by Jane LaFazio ©2010

Rusty forgotten gears, mysterious machine parts. Perhaps an ancient instructional manual with text no longer legible…. taking on the appearance of an illuminated manuscript. How did the parts fit together? What part did they play in the making of something? How much time has passed since they were used? How is the space between ages marked? Materials: Hand-printed cotton, vintage linens, rusted cotton, printed and stained teabags, hand-made merino wool felt and lace. (All imagery is based on my original drawings and photographs from a nearby 110 year old winery.)
