Lumpy profiles are the center of attention in the installation of paper busts by Jose Lerma and Hector Madera. The portraits are titled by their history subjects including the Countess and Emanuel Augustus. Slightly distorted but incredibly curious, they tower over our heads and are constructed entirely of tremendous sheets of paper. They will be showing at the Saatchi Gallery in London until November 3, 2013 and then at the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago until December 3, 2013.

I find a way to fearlessly provoke your senses and take you by the heart to whatever it is I’m writing about. My sweet spot is creative writing, but for the last 20 years I have been providing freelance content for publications on sustainability and green practices, design, architecture, fashion, and non-profit charity. Recently all wrapped up in producing my first book. I have bounced from NYC to Indianapolis, but my true home is a lovely small town in Central Pennsylvania where there’s a legit drive-your-tractor-to-school-day.
