My final print!

I'm done printing! It feels strange to be done, but then again, there is still a lot more to be done. I still have to mount the prints, do some curating and signing of all prints. I still have to get a few more pages of the Spanish version to the text designers and get all the text pages printed digitally. I'm still waiting to receive the museum cases for the artist's books. 

Here is a close-up of my final print, Re-Membering. This piece is about a tentative look at the future and how colonial relationships might be reconsidered. In this piece I play with the scale of the figures; I re-etched all the settler figures in a smaller scale to match the size of the indigenous figures, to portray a shifting of positions and power relations. I also added the figures of women and children, since it will take the engagement of all to move forward.
