Journey

“Journey” is part of the “Wrapture” series by Montena Fink-Lacy. It is part of a subset called Burning Bush”. Contact artist for collector editions – signed and numbered prints. These photos were taken of a piece of sheer orange fabric caught in a thorn bush on the side of Hwy 183 in Austin, Texas. It was lit up by the morning sun like a treasure chest full of gold (well, to me anyway). That section of highway was under construction at the time and is now the 183 Toll Road. I risked life and limb to cross traffic on foot and crawled along the ground to capture photos of the "glorious" sight. The actual fabric was only about 3 feet long, but when zooming in close and aiming up at the sky, it began to take on a larger than life feeling. As with most of the images from the "Wrapture" Series, it represents life, relationships, beauty mixed with pain as well as the transient condition of us all.

The Wrapture Series
By Montena Fink-Lacy

"Wrapture" is a collection that holds my heart and my vision. It comprises both acrylic paintings and photographic images, a testament to the captivating fusion of nature and discarded plastics carried by the whims of the wind. These forlorn objects, swept up by a series of unforeseen events, have embarked on an unexpected journey, becoming entangled, knotted, and ensnared in the natural world, finding their final resting place among trees and fences along our highways. They've transformed into sculptures in motion, reborn as works of art within their newfound environments. My friends have affectionately dubbed this body of work the "trash series," but I vehemently reject such a label. To me, these images are metaphors for life itself, revealing the profound beauty that emerges when our paths take unforeseen turns. What may seem to the casual passerby as useless or forsaken becomes a trove of treasures to those who approach with curiosity - a wellspring of inspiration, hope, and enduring beauty. My journey with "Wrapture" began in 2008. At the break of dawn, as the sun's first rays stretched across the landscape, these discarded relics were aglow, like a constellation of Christmas lights adorning the roadsides and adorning the branches of trees. What captivates me most is the wind's whimsical choreography. It not only carries these items but also shapes and knots them into unique forms. Over time, the elements cause some pieces to take on the appearance of weathered skin, imbuing them with the essence of time's passage. What's endlessly fascinating is that these pieces can change their appearance from one week to the next, and sometimes even within the same day. I'm drawn to their delicate yet powerful presence as they gracefully dance in the wind, creating a striking contrast against the harsh confines of barbed wire and the anger of thorns that hold them captive. It's in the embrace of sunlight that they truly come to life, radiating depth, and even a voice of their own. "Wrapture" is an exploration of the unnoticed, the discarded, and the unpredictable beauty that surrounds us. It invites viewers to reexamine their surroundings, to see the treasures in the seemingly forsaken, and to find in these humble remnants a source of hope, inspiration, and the enduring elegance of life's uncharted course.

Wraptured Swings I

“Wraptured Swings” was created on a deserted school playground in Mason, TX. If you know me or my work, you know that I am obsessed with shadows and all things blowing in the wind. This had it all! When we approached the playground late one afternoon , there was no wind. However, as soon as we started to unroll the 200’ of plastic the wind literally ripped it out of my hands and became alive. The swings started swinging and creaking too. It was crazy! (I have a video that I will try to figure out how to share.) Distorted shadows of distant playground equipment was a total surprise and delight.
As always, I’m inspired by the works of Christo and Jeanne-Claude, the artists noted for their large-scale environmental installations often involving large landmarks and landscape elements wrapped in fabric, including the Wrapped Reichstag, The Pont Neuf Wrapped, Running Fence in California, and The Gates in New York City's Central Park. Christo and Jeanne-Claude would have been proud.

This photo is from Montena Fink-Lacy (Tena) Wrapture Series: It shows an abandononed bridge in Lulling Texas (just outside of Austin) that has been covered with 200 feet of clear plastic. It is draping and blowing in the wind. Part of the road is showing and the blue sky is peaking through the billows as well as glimpse of the sun. This is a beautiful piece of abstract photography art for sale for your office or home wall-art, acrylic prints, canvas or other substrates that would be a conversation starter piece of fine art for a collector or interior designer.

They influenced this “Wraptured” Series in many ways. Wrapping this deserted bridge in Lulling, Texas is my biggest Christo attempt so far. It was far more exciting than I had even expected. I have a video of it where I actually leaped with delight as these huge sheets of plastic came alive all around me, dancing and swaying in the gentle breeze. The sun casting ever changing shadows through the metal beams that grew and shrank with each gust of wind. This was one of the most fun art pieces I‘ve created yet! This couldn’t have happened without my husband’s herculean efforts tossing large rolls of plastic up and over the rafters. Oh, we were just like Christo and Jeanne-Claude.

For Christmas one year, I asked my husband for 200’ of plastic. I know, kind strange. But, I wanted to take it to the beach since there is almost always a great breeze there. I had the idea to let it blow against the pilons at sunset. So fun! I had no idea how long 200 feet was and as Jim took off down the beach unrolling it, it took off with a life of its own. It did exactly what I had hoped for and so much more. In a matter of seconds, it pressed itself to the pilons with the sun setting right behind it. It also actually wrapped itself around a jeep passing by (he was a good sport). I hit the ground with my camera and fired away as things changed rapidly and pieces started to break away. There's just something magically about the big billows popping and snapping in the wind, the sun, and the shadows. Desert Storm, Guardian and Canopy were all captured during this photoshoot. It was such an adrenaline rush for me. What a great Christmas present! The first of many boxes of plastic. (BTW: Jim is my amazing husband who helps to make these crazy ideas come to fruition.)

Plight

“Plight” is part of the “Wrapture” series by Montena Fink-Lacy. Contact artist for collector editions – signed and numbered prints.

“Plight” was discovered in Galveston Texas just after Hurricane Ike. Amidst the calm and gentle sunlight, a once turbulent battle had given birth to an intricate and beautiful sculpture. This plastic, torn and knotted, had weathered the storm and come to rest in the peaceful aftermath, and it had a story to tell. Its tangled form spoke of the relentless struggle against nature's fury, a testament to the battle it had endured. We can imagine a narrative of struggle, relationships, resilience, and the innate human need for freedom and connection. It is a reminder that even in the most challenging of circumstances, beauty and meaning can emerge, and that, like these plastic pieces, we are capable of finding solace and strength in the company of others.

“Undone" is an awe-inspiring photograph, capturing the aftermath of Hurricane Ike in Galveston Texas. The remains of a tarp, once meant to protect, now hang onto what remains of a house on the beach. The delicate woven patterns now fading, unraveling, and re-creating themselves into a new thing - art in motion. It's a reminder of the strength of nature and the beauty of transformation. Displayed side-by-side with Undone II, they are like siblings telling different versions of the same storm. Bring this unique piece of art into your home and inspire your guests with its story.

“Journey” is part of the “Wrapture” series by Montena Fink-Lacy. It is part of a subset called Burning Bush”. Contact artist for collector editions – signed and numbered prints.

These photos were taken of a piece of sheer orange fabric caught in a thorn bush on the side of Hwy 183 in Austin, Texas. It was lit up by the morning sun like a treasure chest full of gold (well, to me anyway). That section of highway was under construction at the time and is now the 183 Toll Road. I risked life and limb to cross traffic on foot and crawled along the ground to capture photos of the "glorious" sight. The actual fabric was only about 3 feet long, but when zooming in close and aiming up at the sky, it began to take on a larger than life feeling. As with most of the images from the "Wrapture" Series, it represents life, relationships, beauty mixed with pain as well as the transient condition of us all.

I love the glistening web like threads that carry you from thorn to thorn.
