The Precipice II
"The artworks in this "Extremities Collection" ongoing body of works emphasize the artist's reliance on kinesthetic learning, the variability in processing communication, the opposition to communication norms that omit the individuality of society members, the collective history and culture of a place, the repetition of shared information and explanations of needed accommodations of those who live with invisible disabilities, etc. This piece represents the stacking, build-up, tension, before the release. The creation of these pieces are multifaceted as I start with drawing, move to carving lino or wood, hand dying papers, printing my extremities via the printmaking process, painting and stenciling multiple layers, configuring, and drying in order to layer all elements, including the addition of specialty papers, and other elements to balance the collage to completion. The pre-planning of the collage piece is based on intended meaning or sentiment of the overall piece, color, and the expressions represented through the hand positioning of the linocuts or wood cuts."
