EDITIONS PROJECT: PIPPI ZORNOZA

2009

38" x 38"

edition of 21

This print typifies Zornozas characteristic use of intricate line-work, elaborate ornament, and combined imagery based in ornate textile patterns, varied mythology, and the natural world. Unlike her past work, however, this print incorporates her distinctive style within a bold geometric motif. A heavy circular mandala divides the piece into six triangular frames, housing the alternating designs within like small vignettes. Five shades of ochre and red lend warmth and subtlety to this incredibly complex design.

The AS220 Community Printshop is proud to announce the newest print from the Editions Project. Both local and traveling visual artists are invited to collaborate with our printmakers on the Editions Project. These artists benefit from broadening the scope and accessibility of their work, and in turn our technically proficient printers gain new vehicles for their craft. This type of working relationship has a long history in printmaking, but often the roles of artist and printer are obscured. The Community Printshop is reviving the process with AS220
