Ritchie Ares Dona

paper folder

Woven fibres patterned the childhood of Ritchie growing up in the Philippines where homes and everyday utensils and packaging was woven from fronds and leaves.

His work uses the patterns of his childhood and the found objects of his present, transforming discarded books and brochures into intricate conical forms.

There’s a fantastic freedom in looking at discarded objects with fresh eyes and seeing their possibilities.
