Three African Ballerinas (limited edition Giclée print)

18x24 limited edition (20) giclée prints. Signed and numbered. Available in cotton rag paper and archival canvas. Arrives unframed in a tube.    This mixed media style, which recalls quilting traditions in black spaces, dramatically captures the grace, beauty, and complexity of these young ballerinas. The art experience of engagement is always a dialectic. Art interacting with the viewer. Meaning or understanding is produced in between the gaze. If not meaning or understanding, then a sensation of feeling. This engagement will be different for every viewer. This is precisely why art belongs only partially to the artist. The creation is a thing apart from the engagement with the viewer. The artist is essential to the former, but takes a decidedly backseat to the latter.
