CRACKED
Cracked 3 was aquired by the prestigious Achenbach Foundation for Graphic Arts at the deYoung Museum/Legion of Honor Museum, San Francisco.
I began this work during a printmaking residency, creating monotypes on a large scale printing press. Working large was new to me and inadvertently the paper became creased under the press. What I first considered an imperfection, became the basis for an entire body of work as I embraced unpredictability as part of my process. The cracks, splits and creases were spontaneously formed as the paper became pleated and compressed under pressure from the press and interacted with the inked surface. Each outcome results in a unique, tactile, and sculptural print.
