Cohen Jr. Susan Davis David Fracer Eric Lansey Jolly Rais Richard Safer Roberta Schipper Artist's Statement: After many years of experience with traditional forms of printmaking, I find the digital printmaking medium intriguing. I use the contemporary virtual darkroom to integrate fleeting images from life and imagination. The original pictures used for my digital collages include slides, photographs, and found pictures. The images were scanned into the computer and then manipulated, color adjusted, and combined into artworks. I invent a fantasy context for each scenario suggesting myths, the past, or the future. My camera and my computer are mediums that I use to combine and manipulate the images, producing montages that speak to the spectator. Viewers are invited to blend their own imagination with the illusions I present.
