Narratives in Cut & Paste - Terry Garrett
November 6th - 27th, 2020


This new body of work represents a shift for me. Printmaking has always been a passion of mine and I focused on printmaking in my undergraduate studies many decades ago. However, because I did not have a press or an appropriate studio space in which to use oil-based inks, the only choice at that time, I stopped making prints. A few years ago I discovered gel plate printing. This medium uses acrylic paint, not inks, and so is much safer and can be cleaned up with water. I am delighted to be printing again. This monotype printing process is so exciting to me as one can never really control the outcome. I have found this to be very artistically freeing -- the process is fast and I am able to try out many different methods for making gel plate prints.

The collage work I do is narrative in nature. These works are visual stories. It is my hope that the viewer will make up their own stories as these collages deal with some basic themes. I use vintage photographs for some of the work -- I alter these photographs to suit my needs. Houses and chairs are an important part of my visual vocabulary, and you can see I used those a lot in these new works.

The pandemic has greatly influenced this new body of work. Themes of social isolation are the subject for many of these narrative collages. Empty chairs are a powerful metaphor for me - they deal with the isolation, and a family estrangement.

Thank you for taking the time to view my work.
