Adam & Terri on "Lumpy Paintings"
Artist duo Adam Frezza & Terri Chiao embarked on a series of material experiments in 2016, leading to their newest project: Lumpy Paintings. The topographical surface of their paper pulp-based works serve as a jumping off point for their signature, riotous colors and playful foray into painting
Recycled paper pulp is pressed and molded by hand into a framed screen, creating thick tablets of paper that are shaped into squiggles, mounds, divots, and daubs. Bright and playful colors painted on the lumpy surfaces augment the humorous aspect of the iconic forms, almost becoming cartoonish stand-ins for abstract painting.
