Michael Velliquette: Intuitive Patterns

Wisconsin-based Michael Velliquette has created an installation for RAM's Windows on Fifth Gallery that reflects his interest in color theory, pattern-making, and papercraft. Building on a long-term relationship with paper—studying its history and physical capabilities—Velliquette transfers his knowledge to light durable Tyvek panels that he has cut into compelling designs. In addition, he plays with the perceptual possibilities of color as he presents the intensely saturated panels in arrangements that will change midway through this year-long exhibition.
