Description

Monoprint on artist made paper with textile inclusions. Depicts a ring of yellow/gold on white background. This is print 1/12. Artist Statement: "My current research explores monoprinting on handmade paper, often incorporating textiles as physical components, inky ghosts or deep embossments. Fabric so cleverly shows us its warp and its weft. I am not wedded to a particular material or method, intaglio, serigraphy, but all printmaking leads me to papermaking. A desire to know the sheets as more than just substrates, taking ownership of the fiber, weight, form and color that best serve a final print." Additional Statement: “I made this piece thinking about the new ways we are finding connection during the time of covid. Considering themes of absence/presence, virtual / physical, what we’ve lost and what we hope to gain.”
