Excerpt from the press release:
Artist Anita Hunt is perhaps best known for her intricate etchings and mysterious, black and white monotypes. Her recent forays into collage represent a new direction, one in which she samples and remixes her images to create new compositions. As a prolific printmaker of 40 years she has, in addition to printing hundreds of editions, squirreled away a large treasure trove of trial proofs, alternate versions and color experiments printed in a variety of mediums—etchings, aquatints, mezzotints, monotypes, linoleum cuts, woodcuts, lithographs, nature prints and rubbings taken from trees, plants, rocks, and local, historic gravestones. She mines this rich archive of raw materials for collage. Each collage is assembled from a careful arrangement of prints combined with hand-marbled paper and hand-drawn elements into a unique composition. The collages illuminate her exploration of subjects, forms and ideas as her vision has evolved across decades. They embody many eras of her lifelong printmaking journey.
