WHAT REMAINS HIDDEN #14
CINDY MOREFIELD, 2020 MIXED MEDIA C O L L A G E O N PA P E R 30 INCHES BY 22 INCHES
Cindy Morefield’s process-driven artworks start with large wall constructions, called textural matrices, “‘What Remains Hidden #14’ is from a series of collages made from ... different rubbings of the same matrix, done in different colors and types of paper that I put back together in collage form.”
made of layered paper, tape and leftover studio materials. As the complex textural matrix evolves, Moorefield makes rubbings from its emerging form using wax pastel, watercolor crayon, colored pencil, soft pastel, and sometimes charcoal on paper or Yupo. Rubbings document and preserve layers of the matrix’s surface like a memory. Her method is like playing a game of hide-and-seek— some elements are revealed while others remain hidden. Cindy Morefield lives in Fuquay-Varina. She earned a master’s of fine art from Northern Illinois University, and has had solo exhibits locally and nationally. Her work is represented by The Mahler Fine Art in Raleigh. View her process on Instagram @cindymorefield.
