FAMILY LOVE
"Spray the Love" photographs printed on chemically distressed aluminum sheets using the Roland DG - Ultra Violet technology (LEF300). Each plate is suspended above an old barn window glass using industrial magnets.
These pieces are personally poignant. They are images of spray-painted flowers on our “ramshackled” fence. They are the result of hundreds of individuals’ helping us with our community art project. The intense colors of the hundreds of unique flowers spell out the word “LOVE” in bright yellow on an aged, distressed wood surface.
After a string of suicides at my daughter’s high school, my family and I decided to create a mural on our backyard fence facing a busy frontage road. We asked our community to assist us. SpraytheLove.com documents the heart-warming and life-changing experience for our family that delivers a message that all can relate to, not just those affected by the local tragedies. It was an amazing experience and has deepened our appreciation of how art can help to heal the sick and sad. All of the photographs used in this series are taken of the final mural.
The DASS ART products used to transfer my pigment ink images allow non-mechanical completion of the final artwork. Where a printer can print the image the same way, thousands of times, this process allows for a thousand of ink transfers to all be unique every time because of the hand-creation and transfer process.
