I like to disrupt repeated patterns using probability. In this arrangement, for example, the smaller blue ladder is sometimes replaced with an even smaller yellow one. The image still functions as an unbroken tiling with some variations emerging in the wallpaper.
I mailed my postcards for this year’s plotter postcard exchange. The design this year is “63 of 255 possible broken 8 rung ladders (in order) + 1 complete 8 rung ladder.” I plotted the cards using an Axidraw SE/A3 with a Staedtler pigment liner for the black lines and a Sakura Pigma PN for the red.
Curated by Lauren Nye and Nandini Makrandi of the Hunter Museum of American Art, The Time Being is a group show in Chattanooga, Tennessee, of work from 2025 Stove Works residents. My work Spans (CMY), a set of three plotter prints, is included. All the work in the show is for sale with proceeds benefiting Stove Works. Pick up individual pieces (1, 2, 3) or buy the whole set. Act fast, because the show closes on Saturday, January 17!
I have a new set of bridge-related plotter art work in the faculty biennial show at the Sarah Moody Gallery of Art on the campus of the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. The exhibition opens Thursday, January 15 and runs through February 20. There’s an opening reception tomorrow, January 15 from 4-6pm.
