In 1993 I experienced an accident that put me in a full-leg cast. I had just moved and was short on cash, not a good thing when Christmas is just around the corner. It was during this time that I experienced a dream that changed my life thus far. I had a dream of being in an office building checking on my art placements from floor to floor. When I woke up I was intrigued by what and how the art looked. It was cloth on canvas in various abstract shapes and colors.
I started calling around art galleries to ask if they had such pieces, describing what I had seen in my dream. Call after call I received a negative response as to anyone ever seeing what I had described. That's when I decided to try and recreate what I had experienced. Since it was Christmas time and my mother is a collector of mother/child pictures (Madonnas) I decided to create one out of cloth. That gift was my first official cloth sculpture.
Since that time I have created sunsets, flowers, children, even lovers in cloth. I welcome you to view and even own Unique Cloth Sculptures by JaMax, http://www.clothsculptures.com/.
