In Part Shift, San Francisco-based artist Zai Divecha (beforehand) interprets the phantasm of motion to monochromatic paper works. Her solo present, which runs from February 25 to March 25 at Heron Arts, options animations and sculptures that reference early stop-motion gadgets like zoetropes and phenakistoscopes. Each depend on sequential formations to indicate development, a way the artist makes use of in her analog items that convey gradual modifications.

Divecha is thought for her singular use of white paper, which pulls the viewer’s eye towards the feel, dimension, and depth of her works and the best way they seize mild and shadow. Mounted on flat planes, the items take into account that “what we would see as static is definitely altering incrementally over time.”
