From the series "Astra Velum", this is a limited edition photogravure print. As Melanie McWhorter of Photo-Eye Gallery wrote, “These lovely, luminescent, one-of-a-kind prints really must be seen to be appreciated.” This series is hand-printed by the artist as a limited edition set of photogravures with a chin collé of Japanese paper, on 11x14" Rives BFK. It is signed and numbered by the artist. Limited to an edition of 30. This series has won numerous awards, been published National Geographic, and is collected in numerous museums and private collections. About Astra Velum: April, a freckled woman in this series, told me a story from her childhood: One day after playing outside, her grandmother asked her to go wash up. She went to the bathroom and did so, but grandma wasn’t satisfied. “Your face isn’t clean! Go scrub it some more!” The young girl was distraught, for all that was left on her skin were her freckles, and no amount of scrubbing would make them go away. In a world that flaunts flawlessness as the ideal, can we find real beauty in the blemishes? More than once, while photographing for this series, women thanked me for making something beautiful out of what they often viewed as an imperfection. At its essence, Astra Velum explores the beauty of flawed human skin, with its freckles and scars, overlaid upon us like a thin veil of stars.
