dear deer
Using the loss of a trusted and old pet as its emotional narrative core, the portfolio of prints goes on to render, in allegory, wild animal (deer) for domesticated friend (dog), and the painstaking process of lithography as an analog for the pain of emotional loss.
These prints became the inspiration for a collaboration with New York State-based poet Lori A. Moseman that married original editioned lithographs with original text.
The collaboration is published in the ecopoethos issue of Dusie Magazine (eco || poesis || ethos ) edited by Marthe Reed.
