Crusade, 2008
C-print

Last week I received news that I have been awarded a Special Editions Residency at the Lower East Side Printshop. It was great news since I've been wanting to work on a series of prints for some time now. At work we recently re-framed an edition of 60 Ellen Gallagher prints which I had a chance to look at close up. They were really interesting for the non materials that she included such as play doe, pomade, and aluminum foil. You often think of prints in very traditional ways but this work pushed that. I hope to experiment with materials as well, maybe using gold leaf, asphalt and roof tar?
