Los demonios no saben lo que buscan (2021) [english: the demons do not know what they are looking for]
Plate lithography
13 1/2” x 19 1/2”
This piece explores momentary peacefulness of a quiet space and the chatter of thoughts closing in seeking acknowledgment.
An Invitation (2019)
Photopolymer letterpress
11 1/2” x 13”
This piece represents a landscape, with the rock-like objects surrounding a marked space meant to be for the viewer, an invitation into this space. A presence of some sort is implied from the space unfilled, as the only hint of a light source is the direction of the shadows cast by the rock-like objects.
Preposition Suite (2018)
Intaglio
e/ 7” x 4 1/4”
This is a suite of 15 intaglio prints that were visual renditions of 15 prepositions. Prepositions are words used to describe the relationship between two objects. I am using an organic shape and a circle with notations to try to visually represent some prepositional words and phrases, such as “in between”, “after”, etc.
Script (2018)
Screenprint, inkwash
18” x 22”
The script can be seen as what it is, symbols that mimic writing and are not translatable. Emphasis can be given to the script and the paper as vessel, both dynamic in their execution as to emphasize their presence.
Cluster (2018)
Stone lithography
17” x 15”
An observational study of clustering of objects and the flattening of the observable (thinking strongly of how we map and flatten things such as celestial objects). Exploring the technique of acid-tinting on stone lithography as a process that eats away at a rich nothingness- what was a drawing of metal wire and paper objects mutated into a mass of something that feels organic and fluid.
Adaptive Artifacts (2018)
Stone lithography, etching, thread
e/ 8.5” x 6.5”
Inspired directly by old manuscripts on the sciences, I picked diagrams to replicate within four schools (astronomy, geometry, music and arithmetic) and removed their information and replaced them with squiggles, so as to bring attention to the variety of visual tools of the diagram and not be distracted by the written information it is trying to organize.
Alignment (2017)
Stone lithography
7” x 7”
A study inspired by rounded apertures in architecture, diagrams, telescopes and the relationship of the circle as an organizing visual tool.
Phase Shift III (2016)
Reduction woodcut
22” x 22”
One of a series of four woodcuts which were all formalist explorations of process experimenting with speed, eye-movement across image and density.
