Headwaters
Ecological Paper, Tea.
Inspired by feminine forms and organic shapes found throughout nature, this collection offers a moment of emotion and tranquility that deeply resonates with the viewer. While creating these works, Jordan leaned into raw feelings and glints of memories from her childhood and well into adulthood. By drawing and cutting with a blade, the process of creating was brutal and unforgiving, while in the end fabricating a soft and ethereal composition. The juxtaposition of the two is something that she feels on a cellular level. Soft, yet strong. Bold, but subtle.
Note, these artworks are hand-dyed with tea and the depth of color varies throughout the artwork.

About the Artist
Jordan Wright Patterson
Jordan Wright Patterson draws on her career in fashion to shape and structure her intricate cut paper works. Inspired by the texture and patterns she finds in the natural world, Patterson explores these unforgiving qualities of using blades against paper, the inability to erase, and the need to accept accidents and move on. In her process, Patterson often uses music to guide her creation of shapes and gestures, letting the blade lead her “through music, thoughts and emotions”. Patterson’s work has been featured in Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles Magazine and exhibited across the US.
