Description

20 x 28 Inches. Silkscreen Ink, Acrylic, Aerosol & Gloss Overprint Varnish on 250gsm Fine Art Paper. $300.00. "This is a new mixed-media print series inspired by Tax Day. It's a bit of a one-off series centralized around the theme of taxes, government, and currency. The direction of this series actually changed quite a bit throughout the process. My initial plan was to collage a large amount of shredded currency onto the prints. After experimenting with some different applications and being unhappy with the results, I sanded and scrubbed away all the collaged currency. As it turned out, the removal of those elements left a great raw texture on the paper; tears, scuff marks, and bits of remaining adhesive and currency shreds. With that as my new base, I spontaneously added layers of screen printed US bills, followed by the focal image of Uncle Sam." - Greg Gossel.
