ANDREA TRACE – Mixed Media works: acrylic paintings, collage, sculptural and textured works, custom buttons and rubber stamps.
My mixed media pieces reflect culture and language filtered through a lens that simplifies common forms. Using acrylic and collage, I explore the construction and deployment of meaning, and the shaping of our beliefs. I am interested in illustrating how we attempt to master our environment via language, laying human-scale boundaries over cosmic-scale concepts and realities. In this tiny print-shop environment, I experiment with increasing the physicality of paper and content.
