Platteville 2020 WRAP Exhibit

Amerika Ist Anders


 Like other WRAP Shows, the Platteville WRAP was virtual this year due to the coronavirus pandemic.

The show was small - eleven pieces submitted by five exhibitors. But the small size actually allowed for a very enjoyable critique of all pieces with more artist participation than is usually possible with a bigger group.

I submitted two small collages on cradled panels, "Amerika Ist Anders" and "S and H". These two pieces are somewhat of a departure from my usual collages laden with lots of paint layers. Instead, while these collages incorporate some drawing and mark making, they depend on the unaltered papers and cloth collage elements themselves to provide texture and visual interest. 

I was pleased that "Amerika Ist Anders" received a State Award so will be eligible for the next State Exhibit in September of 2021.
