About the artist:
Anthony is a printmaker from Kansas City, who specializes in making ephemeral prints out of dust gathered from the surrounding natural environment. Through an extensive process of dyeing and refinement, he transforms discarded remnants of those environments and their inhabitants into ornate works of art using screen printing techniques. A great deal of time and effort goes into the creation of each print, and nothing is used to adhere the dust to the surface. The fragility of each piece encourages an intimate experience where even the slightest breath could disturb the work.
Anthony’s residency research includes refining Bernheim-sourced minerals to make multi-colored “mud prints” highlighting themes such as filtration, sedimentation, and disintegration by introducing water to the work.
