The Laminated Print. Origin and Process of Chine Collé

I am very pleased to announce that my work will be showcased in The Laminated Print: Origins + Process of Chine Collé, a collaborative project that brings together contemporary printmakers, conservators, and art historians to inspire visual thinking about the process of chine collé and draw relationships to paper traditions from China and Japan. 

My piece entitled "Communion” will be displayed along side prints by Charles Cohan, Duncan Dempster, Deborah Nehmad, and a selection of Chinese and Japanese scrolls and screens from the collection of the John Young Museum of Art. The scrolls and screens were selected and researched by Gary Liu, art historian and specialist in Chinese art, and Hiroko Sakurai, East Asian painting and paper conservator. Conservation workshops by Hiroko Sakurai and demos by chine collé printmakers will be held in conjunction with this exhibition.
