On 11/20/2019 @maggiejeannesiegel and I had an art play date and made 4 single sheet books for @heavy.bubble biannual #ritualbookshow opening Dec 6 in Philadelphia at 1241 Carpenter St studios. These books are acrylic ink and pens on a 11”x 17” piece of oak tag paper folded into a 5.5”x4.5” book. We made these together, passing back and forth, asking what each other thought about what we were doing...does it need a little more? A different color? Something tiny? Something big? We didn’t worry about making our own art. We just played and experimented and doodled together. These 4 books are called “Playdate” and are available for sale for $75 each plus shipping. If you want to pre-purchase one dm me right away! All proceeds of the book sales goes to Maggie to supplement her complete lack of income thanks to her stupid brain cancer. Let’s help Maggie make more art and less tumors! #bookart #PVDartist #wendywolf #thewendywolf #maggiesiegel #ink #artplaydate (at River Street Artists) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5LxDCKlPX6/?igshid=1e3qd7mg3y3gc

Werewolves are super importante to me

Artist Statement

Living within urban and suburban communities, constructed landscapes have been my primary experience with nature. I create a record of a fleeting moment; reproducing leaves that have been altered by weather or bugs, and preserve them through reproduction. Using yupo, an industrial plastic paper, as my base material

I neutralize nature by reducing it to formal aspects of shapes while creating leaves that will not decompose.

Through the use of line, I manufacture tenuous visual and physical connections. Cotton threads that will weaken and disintegrate with time create the structure for my reproduced leaves to exist. My intent is to establish a tenuous connection with the natural world by bringing my manufactured leaves as a mimesis of nature in dialogue with the landscapes of human construct.

I produce all of my work within a restrained structure of repeated marks and repeated process. Everything is obsessively repeated—mark making, cutting, assembling, and movement. Through the physical labor, the act of doing is of equal importance to the visual representation of the work.

The series Natural Repetition began during a residency at Taliesin West (Frank Lloyd Wright School of Architecture) in Scottsdale, AZ. The residency gave me the opportunity to create an outdoor installation piece. While exploring the grounds I found an orchid tree whose leaves looked very similar to the repeated marks I had been working with in my painting and cutpaper series. I processed the leaves by tracing and reproducing them in paper as I had been doing with the marks in my paintings. As soon as that first strand of leaves was installed in the courtyard, it completely changed the way people interacted with the space.

Instead of walking through with their heads bent down, they stopped and looked up—seeing this beautiful tree above them—and spent time exploring and making personal associations with my paper leaves. I was thrilled to watch hundreds of people walk through the space (on daily tours) with expressions of delight.

That installation has since lead to a whole series of work based on different locations and the natural repetition found in various types of plants.
