3 more makes 30
Last Map: Mirror, Last Map: Beacon, Last Map: Crosslit, each gouache and ink on paper, 11.5″ x 8.25″, 2010
I completed 3 more Last Map drawings in Iceland to total 30, which has been my goal for some time now. These latest drawings reflect my icy surroundings at the time I made them. Hopefully I can exhibit all 30 together in the near future.
Although I prefer to display them all simply taped to the wall, the wear and tear isn’t good for the drawings, so I need to get them framed. I have some ideas for framing them that should provide for some interesting installation opportunities.
In other news:
-I am pleased to have been mentioned in the 12.17.10 Chicago Tribune article about the best Chicago area art of 2010. Apparently there is an image of Bring in the Light in the print version, though I haven’t yet seen it myself.
-Also, Nicole Pietrantoni (who I met and collaborated with in Iceland) and I plan to be working together again soon under the name Island Projects. We hope to have a website up and running in the near future.
-Some of Amelia Earhart’s bones may have been found on Nikumaroro Island in the Pacific Ocean. Here’s the full article.
Congrats on finishing thirty! They are beautiful. I hope to see them installed together.
