"This edition was created at my studio in Minneapolis over a two week
span in March/April of this year using Rives BFK heavyweight 250gsm
paper. Each piece began with a hand-collaged base layer of vintage
1960-70’s era tabloids, creating a complex weathered surface. The
collaged surface is then sanded & stained, and additional texture is
added with spray enamel. Finally, each piece is hand-printed with a
variety of spontaneous and planned silkscreen layers to create the
finished artwork. I think my favorite part of this series is the collage layer, which
creates a really interesting base surface, making each print completely
unique from the next. While I’ve employed this technique throughout my
career, it’s been some time since I’ve done so for a full print edition." - Greg Gossel
