Vision of Hope 2011

Vision of Hope, 2011, Mary L. Taylor, Marshfield, MA, USA A gradient of tones from ash grey to red, pamphlet sewn binding, laser and inkjet printed onto collaged Sundace Text paper. The underlying text is from the Qaran; Revelation of Abraham, with the overlaying text from Steven Jobs, Lord Alfred Tennyson, Jimi Hendrix and the artist. The Revelation of Abraham was copied in English and Arabic from the website Oneummah.net then duplex printed onto the paper. The printed pages were chopped up into 1” strips, woven and pasted back together again creating a random surface. The woven text sheets were white washed to obliterate more of the text.  Then gradient images with text were then inkjet printed onto the surfaces of the new paper. The result is a remix of ancient dogma with a hope for a peaceful new understanding. Dimensions: 8'' x 4'' x .25''. Medium: pamphlet sewn binding, laser and inkjet printed onto collaged Sundace Text paper. Taylor's art is diverse, so is her use of materials and the processes she employs to visually express universal paradigms with earth and spirit. In 2012 she has works included in Attleboro Art's 8 Visions & in shows traveling Poland, France, and in the USA. She teaches Book Art classes and Beyond the Digital Print classes in her Marshfield, MA studio as well as in FL and CT. http://MaryTaylorArt.com/ Mary@MaryTaylorArt.com
