Description

Dice/Ice, 2020 Acrylic, archival inkjet print, auction catalog, embroidery thread, 1947 Encyclopedia Brittanica, ink, marker, sticker, vellum, and vintage coloring book on watercolor paper
14 x 11 inches

Using photographs culled from my family photo archive, Pair / Pairs are a play-on-words with text of objects that come in or as pairs overlaying the pair of people depicted in the photograph.The cheeky and colorful collages borrow objects of domesticity: images of flowers, a single dash of embroidery thread, a page from a 1947 Encyclopedia Brittanica, jewels and vintage cookbook recipes, to name a few.These images evoke a shared nostalgia, questioning the language of domesticity, memory of the home, and sense of place in history.
