Living Inside and Outside the Box



This series was inspired by a visit to the Gant Glove Factory in Pécs, Hungary. It was in watching the unnamed artists
create gloves through handstitching, stretching of leather and matching of colour that I began to think about
how there are so many places and times in life where we have to fit into the box make things exactly
how they are to be and at other times we can live a little outside the box. I am a school teacher (elementary Fine Arts)
and sometimes feel that I live inside and outside the box of creating. I am somewhat limited in what I can create
because of the profession that I am in.

In total I am creating ten different images of gloved hands.
The prints will be printed 15 times each and created in various colours for a total of 150 prints. The prints use a
chine colle technique that will see coloured paper that I purchased in Budapest added to the paper and
then the print is overtop of that.
