Statement about AOAP Submitted Artwork
Each post card represents part of my art history and part of the present journey.
I thought it would be great to attach Polaroids as they are unique and archival.. The Warhol Wig and Glasses I photographed in his house, NYC. 1987.
The Stephen Hawking 4x5 polaroid from the shoot which became the Book jacket for "A Brief HistoryOf Time". The print of the Warhol Medicine Cabinet was printed in 1997. C Type Kodak print.
Finally, the first print from my painting "I Own my Dress” 2024 concerning the taking of women right to choose by US Government by turning over the Abortion Act. It also represents a theme of many series of art works referencing women abuse and mental health, in paintings and photographs since 2002.
