Description:
Los Angeles, CA, 1990. Broadsheet. Near Fine.. Broadsheet. "Michael Jackson was preparing his 'DANGEROUS' album & was looking for one production company to oversee all the short films (this is what he called music videos), documentaries, TV and pretty much anything having to do with film, plus an image revamp. Propaganda [Films] began talks with his managers GALLIN/MOREY. Eventually myself and Ute Leonhardt began meetings with MJ & his team. In one meeting Michael seemed overwhelmed with the complexity of all the different projects he would be working on during the next few years & blurted out in a moment of frustration: 'I wish I had a blueprint for my life'. At this stage Propaganda had not officially been selected. The job of producing all his projects was a massive undertaking and everyone in town was jockeying for the position. So, I took it upon myself after consulting with my partners Joni Sighvattson and Steve Golin, to employ an artist who iIhad worked with on many occasions to make…

Description:
Portland, Oregon: Scantron Press, 2016. Limited Edition. Fine. Limited Edition. "object n., object v. was created to link present day gender inequality to our ancient past. Male control over women's bodies and women's sexuality continues around the world, as does the hierarchy of objective beauty. While the ancient Greeks were oppressing and objectifying women, an egalitarian society roamed north of the Black Sea. Legendary warrior women known as Amazons rode horses, practiced archery, fought to defend and conquer, and had sexual freedom. In this artist book I have juxtaposed two parallel worlds through objects and imagery. All the text is derived from two books that paint the picture and tell the story. Helen of Troy: Beauty, Myth, Devastation by Ruby Blondell and The Amazons: Lives & Legends of Warrior Women Across the Ancient World by Adrienne Mayor. When I read that self-reliant warrior women existed in the ancient world I was inspired and I wanted to share that knowledge to rekindle a…

Over a three-year period I collected slang and derogatory words that exploit women. The exhaustive list came from friends, family, and several dictionaries on slang. Strangers also contributed by writing on anonymous pink and blue cards their answer to the question what are the worst names you have ever been called? In my first projects, I sculpted hats, bras, and underwear made of letterpress-printed woven paper. This series of work makes feminist references to craft, the body, and a misogynist culture." Bright and unmarred. Woven paper strips, letterpress printed, sculptural. Approx. 23x5" np.

The paper wig series continues to investigate language, broadening the scope of degrading and offensive terms to include words of hatred and violence. Printed in red, white, and blue ink are tiny racist words whose mere existence is testimony to society's intolerance towards difference."

Description:
Portland, OR: Scantron Press, 2000. Limited Edition. Fine. Limited Edition. "Words of bigotry and prejudice are woven into the fabric of this U.S. flag. The Equal Rights Amendment, first proposed in 1923, is still not part of the United States of America's constitution. The flag of the United States is a loaded symbol for this country: laden with patriotism and a vast array of other emotions. In the artwork: "...with liberty and justice for all", it becomes the opposite of its title: a revelation of the injustices, racism and classism of which the country is capable. It becomes a tapestry of name-calling, and as such is a culminating work in my exploration of derogatory language used against groups of people." [Artist statement]. Bright, and unmarred. Woven handset letterpress text on vellum, hand-stitching. 53x80" Signed by the artist.
