Yet, our experience of nature is becoming increasingly less direct. Man\u2019s destruction of the environment and urbanization have made nature feel compartmentalized to me \u2013 somewhere to go on an outing — and for many, difficult to access at all. Add to that: Real human interaction is now often mediated by technology \u2013 a digital screen inserted between us and the physical world. During the pandemic, this issue has come into sharper focus. Ironically, the digitization that limited personal contact in the past, facilitates much of our safe communication today. Now, I think that being outdoors at a distance, safe in nature, is more than ever a much-needed salve to our jittery psyches. In my work, I sort through these ideas, while in my life, I am constantly in search of a more authentic analog experience.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The baculites fossil that my silkscreen piece is based on is is all that remains of a sea creature that went extinct around the same time as the dinosaurs, about 65 million years ago. The fossil has a lace-like pattern that is formed by the sutures that were in this animal’s exoskeleton. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Baculites started out very tiny and had to grow quickly to protect themselves from predators, building new chambers on their shell as they grew. The contour patterns, which mark the different chambers, are<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> not only beautiful but remind me of both the physicality and fragility of life.<\/span><\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/katherinelampert.com\/\">Katherine Lampert<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0is an artist and teacher based in South Haven, Michigan and Chicago. Her studio work considers texture, color, entropy, and the evolving relationship between nature and technology. Her multi-layered painting process often begins with a photographic study of pattern in nature, such as a cloudscape, the lace-like remnants of a two hundred million-year-old fossilized sea creature, or the unusual markings on a rare tropical insect. These images serve as inspiration and a point of departure for her semi-abstract works.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Medium: Screenprint Year: 2020 Edition size: 16 Dimensions: 18\u2033 x 18\u2033 Published Spudnik Press Cooperative Inscriptions: Edition Number (left back), Signature (right back) Produced in collaboration with Brian Baxter\u00a0(composer) Ten… <a class=\"excerpt-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.spudnikpress.org\/shop\/artwork\/ten-x-ten\/reverberation-katherine-lampert\/\" title=\"ReadEcho | Katherine Lampert\">Read more »<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":33537,"template":"","meta":[],"product_cat":[18],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-33536","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-ten-x-ten","7":"product_shipping_class-larg_art","9":"first","10":"instock","11":"taxable","12":"shipping-taxable","13":"purchasable","14":"product-type-simple"},"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.spudnikpress.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/33536"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.spudnikpress.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.spudnikpress.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.spudnikpress.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/33537"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.spudnikpress.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=33536"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.spudnikpress.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=33536"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.spudnikpress.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=33536"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
