Description

This broadside was produced for McVarish’s first solo show at de Vera Gallery in San Francisco in 1993, and was produced within the broader theme of printing and working with dreams. The images and the text are all “found”; the text is derived from a cut-up method, and the images were chosen from a collection of printer’s cuts that were on hand. In doing so, McVarish told Granary Books that she was seeking the “effects of overdetermination, obfuscation, oscillation and slippage.”
