Angela Inglis : Still life(s) With AdjectivesTools Wagner, David. Angela Inglis : Still life(s) With Adjectives. Lethbridge Alta: Southern Alberta Art Gallery, 1997.
Abstract (English)"Inglis' works emphasize the inherent qualities of the material they are made from. The effects of gravity and other physical laws are evident in the works, as multiplied thicknesses of paper reveal their imperfections in sagging cascades and bulges. By layering row upon row of paper, the artist points out not how manufactured and consistent the materials are, but how inconsistent, imperfect and flawed they are. As layers are built up out of paper and paste, they begin to bend under their own weight and extrude from their varying thicknesses. Each slight variation is multiplied by its repetition, causing areas where there is ink on the page to rise above those where there is none." -- David Wagner, page 3.
