Commentary
This work is a part of Femfolio, a collaborative project bringing together twenty woman artists who created the feminist revolution in art during the early 1970s. All artists were featured in the exhibition "How American Women Artists Invented Postmodernism: 1970-1975" at the Mason Gross School of the Arts Galleries (December 15, 2005–January 27, 2006). In collaboration with Master Printer John C. Erickson and the Brodsky Center.

Vibrant hand lithography overlays black-and-white photograph fragments. While the colorful, abstract strokes contrast with the stark lines of the collage, both elements are visceral and material. Earthy textures and muddled images of the body constitute the "evidence" in the piece. The print has a scrapbook-like quality, as if it contains a series of meemories with both the factural record (the photographs) and the emotional impression (the drawing).
