National Open Call (2020)

Between August 2020-Jan 2021 I had a national call for collaboration. It was the first time experimenting with this through-the-mail process. I spent several months scanning large high-res images. Unfortunately sometime during the February winter storm my hard drive was ruined, and I lost all of these high-res images and attribution information, meaning, I have no way of tracking whose print is whose. The gallery below are screen shots pulled from a presentation. Due to the ephemeral nature of these prints, once they are are peeled from the backing they start to erase, which significantly alters the image. Below are images from this first round.
