Artist's Description:
In her first residency at Tamarind Institute, Donovan continued her exploration of printmaking, defying traditional techniques to create matrices of astonishing simplicity and beauty. Tamarind Master Printer Valpuri Remling and Apprentice Printer Candice Corgan worked with Donovan to create a matrix constructed entirely of 3” x 5” index cards. She assembled the cards in a wooden structure, and then the overall pattern was photographed from above. The photographic image was exposed to an aluminum plate, with the contrast adjusted to allow for the intricacies of the paper-thin edges to read as positive space.Exhibition Sponsor:
