Description
Evelyn Eller is a painter and printmaker who makes paper collages and artists’ books. ”I work with images that incorporate the use of language, maps, photographs, music and my own drawings. I utilize fragments of script in order to show the interrelatedness of different cultures and their commonality. … I manipulate the text in a purely visual form as pattern, without regard to its meaning; in these works I see the words as visual abstractions.” From artist’s website, December 2023.
