20 Images
Entrada is a collaboration with my poet friend David Lee. David's collection of 14 poems entitled Entrada served as the beginning of this project. He gave it to me to find images and a way of presenting both. The images were made new or found in my files. For months I dwelled on how best to integrate both art forms and finally arrived at the present display; digitized B&W negs layered on a duotone gradient background with text. I am currently experimenting with covering each image with clear acrylic gel and then adding Entrada sand around the image and text. Hopefully, it won't look too contrived, kitchy or just plain ol' dumb. Unfortunately, you can't read the poems at the size the work is presented here. You'll have to come to our exhibit, which is April 20 - June 1 at the Finch Lane Gallery, which is located at the Salt Lake City Arts Council building near the UofU. See ya' there.
