GEMMA
DRAPER
Cordial Changes, 2006
Undressing the guests
The outer parts of the objects often give a wrong idea. True essence
often flows by working in depth. Three-dimensional spaces offer
this possibility, and to feel the layers of a natural material introduce
the idea of change as an inevitable mate. To heal and to fix are
an under-line in Gemma Draper's new pieces. A cut element cannot
be read in the same way as it was before. Stone, horn and wood assume
in these works their new condition, where a deficiency quality is
now seen as a precious reason to be.To assume nudity allows the
possibility of hosting new ways of dialogue. In this case guests
don't replace or fill the missing elements, but fulfill them in
new and unexpected ways.
