Description

"Blue Winds" is a collection of wearable art works by visual artist Yannick Lowery. Featuring previous collage works by the artist re-envisioned as cyanotypes, this scarf depicts part a six-part saga inspired by Toni Morrison's Song of Solomon. An imagined sequel to the final moments of the novel, each piece is handmade, one at a time and one of a kind. Yannick Lowery is a visual artist with an interdisciplinary practice based in Philadelphia, PA. Inspired by the cultural dynamics of his native New York City and present hometown, his work explores the creations of illustrated proverbs and personal narratives to guide the viewer through introspection and imaginative perpetuation. Through the years Lowery has used paper collage as an interstitial tool of navigation between other artistic mediums from sculpture, animation, and illustration. He utilizes photography, found, and archived paper to employ world-creation and compile instigative, investigative way-making devices. Ultimately, his collage works are allegorical tools for his true medium: the robust ecosystem of community that inspires him becomes central imagery for his work and participates in the concepts that inform his oeuvre.
