Last weekend our college put on it's Senior Show. As seniors we spent our fall semester establishing a concept and implementing it into a suite of art. I chose collagraphs. In spring we framed our works, I made shadow boxes and float mounted my pieces onto mat board, and then hung them in our art gallery.
I displayed five works, four together and one that was placed on our title wall.
We had a good reception with around 200 people. I'm not sure how I will be able to continue printing collagraphs since I won't have a press anymore but I have a good feeling about plaster of paris. Here are some closeups of my work. The glare is due to the glazing-I used plexi because I didn't want to put too much weight on the shadowboxes, plus it's easier to cut.
These were taken at a downward angle-the works aren't inverted like that. Also-I should have taken photos of these pre-framing.
The image below is the banner for our school's website as an advertisement for our show-kinda cool.
