Artwork description:

This is a small monotype print of a Shaman printed on Newspaper. The image has been printed specifically on this Newspaper clipping due to the title next to her left eye 'Game One: Target Practice', which although the article has no relation to the image of the Shaman, the title relates to those from the past who treated Native Americans with injustice.

Other ideas play with thoughts about how the printed word was used to shape public opinion and spread propaganda. An image is laid upon the surface to reveal the hidden images conjured through the printed word.

Materials used:

Oil based printing ink on newspaper on fabriano.
