Artist Statement:
My print work is often about
humanity's self-image in
relation to animals and our
perceptions of animal life and
personality. I often deal with
taxidermy as the subject
matter, usually poor quality,
often humerous, taxidermy. As
a photographer I have evolved
into a printmaker who works
exclusively in PHOTOGRAVURE.
My most recent research has
been to print CMYK 4-color
copper-plate photogravure. See
my website for more
examples... www.deadcat.ca
I am also interested in
letterpress and book arts,
gravure artistamps, and other
forms of "matrix art". I will
add more detail here later,
but in the meantime, complete
artist's statements about
bodies of work such as
"Bestiarum Excerptum" and
"Locomotive Torpor" can be
found on my website at
www.deadcat.ca
My wife and I have written a
book on the photogravure
process: "Copper Plate
Photogravure: Demystifying the
Process". More information can
be found at
www.photogravure.net...
