FACTORY MADE
Reinterpretations of the inner-workings of the 140-year-old, internationally-renowned French Paper Co., constructed completely out of collaged cut-paper produced at the French mill based in the artist’s hometown of Niles, MI. Each piece in the series explores the manipulation of color, pattern, and shape use, to reveal beauty and harmony within the heavy machinery and factory environment that produces the extraordinary paper.
BRIEF BIO
Michael Hambouz is a Brooklyn, NY-based multidisciplinary artist. Whether in paint, ink, or cut-paper, Hambouz’ work is a vehicle for communicating social/observational commentary and subtle/not-so-subtle humor in a distinct voice and style intended to be accessible for all and exclusive to none. He has exhibited at the Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM), Pratt Institute, Calico Brooklyn, and Fountain Art Fair New York, among numerous other NYC venues, and donates a percentage of all sales to arts-related non-profit organizations.
