Join us for the opening of this very unique exploration of the art of the printmaker! Part of the annual @PrintAustin celebration, the show and its events will coincide with print-related activities all over the city.
“Suspension” is an immersive print installation which invites the viewer to explore an outcropping of wilderness where the weird may take place. Screenprinted elements are combined with a variety of materials to create a lush setting of colorful foliage which fills the space. This environment culminates in a suspended moment; a focal point of ultimate potential. Surrounded by abundance this core allows for a quiet confrontation with the unknown.
