Goals

To create a dynamic work of art for exhibition at Monte Vista and potential clients.
Monte Vista Projects is pleased to announce Perforations, a solo exhibition of recent hand cut paper sculptures and ink drawings that explore geometric abstraction through representational forms found in architecture. Continuing her interest in urban boundaries, social issues and the concept of impermanence found in Eastern philosophy, Griffith selects forms that divide, distort and bear witness to the complexity of issues found in public and private spaces relevant today.

Works include a large-scale floor sculpture based on a steel fence built by Caltrans in 2017 in San Jose, California, which was erected to prevent a homeless community from returning to an encampment that was disturbing a residential neighborhood. Other works continue to investigate paper as a sculptural medium and subject matter derived from expanded steel patterns found in fences and grates. Also included in the exhibition are ink drawings on paper of breezeblocks found in mid-century architecture, which were often used as spatial and transitional devices.
