Accidentals

Accidentals is a mural sized piece created by cutting strips of my screen printed sheets of recycled plastic bags. There is also text in endangered languages and I imagined this as a giant sized artist book. Since so much of the process of making this piece was random, the title became Accidentals. This also describes birds that are found outside of their normal habitat. Making Accidentals took me way out of my comfort zone. Trusting the convoluted process (read blog about making Accidentals…) was a lesson in remembering that like parents, artists just start the piece and then it has a life of its own. Accidentals was chosen for a 2023 exhibition in Venice as part of Deborah Kruger’s Arte Laguna Prize.
