"The Distance Within Us" explores the quiet, expansive realm of interiority - a space of reflection, sensation, and presence. Velliquette’s work invites viewers to slow down, look inward, and engage with symbols and forms that speak to shared human experience. Through eyes, hands, stars, teardrops, and human profiles, Velliquette creates a visual language of awareness - an invitation to contemplate what lies beyond the visible and within the self.
Crafted entirely by hand, the paper sculptures - made from heavyweight archival paper in metallic tones of gold, silver, bronze, copper, and pewter - reflect a two-decade mastery of the medium. With scissors, styluses, bone folders, and leather punches, Velliquette meticulously cuts, textures, and layers each form, creating intricate, dimensional pieces framed in shadowboxes that resemble small, sacred dioramas.
