In my current monotype print series titled "Remnants," I deconstruct printed marketing materials from cultural institutions and museums to create prints that explicate the ways in which we consume culture and produce meaning. Through the printing process, often impressions of words and images from the original materials are transferred to the prints, leaving a residue. For example, in my print "Remnants, Constellations II," I tore up recycled marketing posters from the Harvard Art Museums’ exhibitions "Bauhaus and Harvard" and "Hans Arp’s Constellations II." I inked up, folded, and manipulated these shredded materials, creating a collage on a plexiglass plate. To produce the monotype print, I run the materials through an intaglio press. As these materials fall apart through the printing process, it creates a singular and unique impression on paper--a remnant. During the Pandemic, not able to access museums and the art within, these works have taken on new meaning.
