Working at Turn-Based Press This Week: Bethany Collins
Bethany Collins, currently an artist at the Fountainhead Residency, is working at the Press this week completing a set of blind embosses which will be unveiled in Chicago in August.
From one of her artist’s statements:
” . . . each new body of work borders on an obsessive preoccupation with language- it’s ability and inability to negotiate a way of being in the world. But I have found in my practice a delight in these obsessive preoccupations. And in the solutions they slowly, ever so slowly, but inevitably offer.”
I read about this project as I am friends of Kathleen’s, Fountainhead residency. Met many wonderful artists via the house and the Mikesells. I look forward to participating in the workshop Saturdays.
