this artist is awesome - ethan cook

i'm totally digging the works of Ethan Cook. he's based in rome (italy, not georgia), which is about all i can gather from his website, though a quick google search tells me he used to be based in new york. little paper planes wrote a post about him a few years ago, which included his own words; 

"central to my work is the idea of canvas being a material to work with, not on. through an additive and reductive process including dyeing, bleaching, painting, folding and staining, the materials become a part of the canvas' weave. the canvases are worked, dried and reworked again and again to completion."

beautiful.
