Sea Breeze with Ingenious Objects

I am an art quilter and a printmaker, but I was a printmaker first. I now work to marry the disciplines. This small study is part of a series I call The Garden of Earthly Ingenuity where I am exploring images printed from ingenious objects. In the broadest sense, these works are about climate change and my belief that optimism about the future depends on human ingenuity in the face of the the huge social, political, and engineering challenges of our ties. In this series, I collect and print machined objects and the "accidental outputs" of 3D printers as social evidence of ingenuity. Printed with Caligo Safewash relief inks on Evolon.
