I have great anticipatory excitement for a two-person exhibit I will be part of in November at The Other Side (Utica, NY), involving David "RC" Oster and yours truly. David is a phenomenal artist who specializes in highly detailed pen-and-ink drawings of barns and buildings and trains and roller-coasters. His work is exquisite. For our exhibit, he plans to show some of his "fantasy" city-scapes. Interestingly, he uses drawings of real buildings, from real cities, but combines them into his own created city. For example, he might take a sky-scraper from New York, and add another building from Chicago, and one from Philadelphia, to create a fantasy city (with the inclusion of a roller-coaster or a set of train tracks and trains). It's really amazing! For our two-person exhibit, I thought that I might make a "collaborative" piece, by which I would integrate my collage elements into a print of one of his fantasy city-scapes. Here are the prints I obtained from David on which I will experiment with placement of collage elements. I'm excited to explore the possibilities!
