From Massachusetts artist Dianne Pappas’s show “mini monuments’’ at Boston Sculptors Gallery through Sept. 29
The gallery notes her “constructed compositions of symbols, lines, tallies, maps, markings, and characters. Fiberfill, vitamin capsules, rubber mold, tarlatan, clay, wire, masking paper, resin, corrugated metal, hangers, reflective mylar, and bubble gum are comforting, regimented, bouncy, accepting, foundational, transparent, shiny, supportive, distorted, and tasty. Pappas ponders the questions: What do we want our monuments to do? What do we need our monuments to do?’’
