About The Artwork

IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO PURCHASE A SCULPTURE LIKE THIS ONE I CAN CREATE ONE ESPECIALLY FOR YOU IN BLACK OR ANY OTHER COLOUR. IT TAKES ABOUT 50-70 HOURS TO MAKE THIS SCULPTURE SO IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO COMMISSION ONE IT WILL TAKE 4-6 WEEKS PLUS SHIPPING FROM PARIS FRANCE. MERCI. Noir Paper, ethylene vinyl acetate 10 x 32cm / 3.9 x 12.5in The process of making hundreds of small decisions everyday determines the shape and form of our lives NOIR is a metaphor for this process where the small individual forms of the fortune tellers / cootie catchers brought together create the shape and form of the finished sculpture. The sculpture consists of four hundred origami fortune tellers / cootie catchers. I cut and folded each fortune teller then glued them together to create the final sculpture. The piece took over 50 hours to create.

Fiona Hueston is an visual artist whose work incorporates many different disciplines, including photography, installations & sculpture. During her studies for a Masters Degree in Cross Disciplinary Art & Design at the College of Fine Arts UNSW. Fiona started to investigating the possibilities of working with multiple origami paper forms, which lead to the creation of sculptures and installations. The Equal Hearts Project installation, featured in her first solo exhibition and won the Awesome Foundation grant, consisted of two thousand paper origami hearts. The installation was a participatory artistic petition where the general public were encouraged to write a message on a heart supporting marriage equality, each heart was then strung up and attached to a hot pink rotary washing line, an iconic symbol representing domestic married life in Australia. Fiona starting exploring other origami forms, stacking and gluing them together to create sculptures. Her piece Circle, which consisted of four hundred fortune tellers was a finalist in the 2015 Woollahra Small Sculpture Prize and led to her winning her first artistic residency. Fiona continues to develop her artistic practice in Paris, France, working mostly in sculpture and photography and has recently exhibited at The Other Art Fair in New York & is will be exhibiting at the ArtRooms Fair in Rome 2-4 March 2018.
