Corrugation: Correlation, a foray into cardboard territory, will be exhibited at Andrew Logan Projects starting Thursday May 4th.

“All of my larger steel works originate small scale in cardboard and card stock - cut with an X-acto, joined with slots… then I make them tabletop size in steel, and finally at full scale in steel. But… Cardboard can hold its own! Corrugation correlates with community in this case. “

Corrugation: Correlation

by Fitzhugh Karol

“I initially form much of my larger work on a small scale by cutting cardstock and cardboard using hole punches and a knife, then assembling planes together with slotted construction. I then make tabletop-sized wood or metal works before creating them at a large scale in steel. This piece was made to celebrate that process and extend it one step further – by creating a large-scale piece out of cardboard as a finished work.

The steel version of this piece,

Recess: Reads, is currently installed at the Tang Teaching Museum at Skidmore College in Saratoga Springs, New York. Its dimensions are identical to the piece here.”
