I stumbled upon this Chicago artist as I was on the School of the Art Institute Admissions site, whilst attempting to settle my life with a large continuing education decision. Which has been postponed, for good reasons. Good reasons being that I didn't have a certain deep down enough reason to decide a hundred grand away to my future all for the peace of mind that I could say I was on my way to being "successful" and "practical"....two words whose meanings have quite blurry edges.
Anyway, this girl, Rachel Pollak, is awesome. I want her degrees. Masters of Arts and Religion from Yale and Masters of Fine Arts from SAIC? Woah.
I want to print make with purpose, subtle beautiful purpose, purpose that is exclaimed through perfect ink edges and tiny lines and strong lines and stippling and texture. I like that I can see a bit of that in this.
These two are from her series, "Delectable Mountains".
