Matina Marki Tillman in Maryland Federation of Art “Imprint 2024” National Print Exhibition

Artist member Matina Marki Tillman has had prints selected for inclusion in Maryland Federation of Art’s “Imprint 2024,” an open national juried exhibition.  The prints come from her third Humanography series, “Paramythia,” her ongoing collection of contemporary fairy tales.  The exhibition was juried by Elizabeth M. Rudy, Associate Curator of Prints at the Harvard Art Museums, where she stewards the collection of European and American prints from the 15th century to the modern era.

In the first of two tales, “Fools’ Way” (solar plate etching from digital collage) intimates legends of ghost cities, their inhabitants stripped from the environment they created for themselves.  A tale of identity in “Another story” (solar plate etching from India ink drawing on vellum) is told through a doll cut-out floating in an environment of multiple choices (that might not be so multiple after all, and not even choices perhaps).  The show will run through September 25th at Maryland Hall’s Earl Gallery at the Maryland Federation of Art in Annapolis, MD.
