Black Eye Susie, 27 IN x 36 IN, drawing, Japanese woodcut, collage, 2016, Perhaps this is magical thinking, but I believe making art as a rite to summon the moon’s power of regulation has an impact. In a watercolor collage, I painted and pasted a row of dark moons hovering like drones over the following scene: a line of teeth, a female with Black-Eyed Susan flowers falling out of her long hair, and a scarecrow bursting from some mysterious female conducting a hidden ceremonial action. Above the row of dark moons, I pasted a repeating photo of myself, from a performance in the woods, crouching over cloudlike painted circles. I hold the half-sliced Osage orange over my eyes, creating new binocular mooneyes looking back at the viewer. The multiplied female form gazing out in a 2-tiered row is meant to invoke a formation, a militant wall of defense or uprising.
