Artist CommentaryLabel
The black intaglio aspect of this work is taken from my own footprints in mud smooshed across paper, then photographed and printed to film to create the intaglio plate. The footprints source may not be obvious, but rather is a layer of meaning. As an image they allude to landforms seen from an aerial perspective. The suspended figure, which is cut from a textbook page on aesthetics coated in beeswax, represents the challenges to individuals in making a difference in both cultural and climate crises. The pearly beads are the smidgens of hope we come across here and there when we pay attention.Label Type
