prints
in this body of work, the components of dismantled typewriters are used to generate images. the punched sheet metal pieces are arranged on the press bed then inked and printed in a manner similar to a woodblock or other relief plate. the three tiled pieces are built of multiple impressions, trimmed and mounted to a single board.

titles reference the typewriter from which each print's components were pulled.
