ABOUT THE ARTWORK
I use woodcut botanical images and letterpress text that continues the Victorian tradition of the language of flowers. Historically, flowers were a means to send coded messages that were otherwise dared not spoken. Specific flowers communicated specific postures or sentiments. In this work, the choices of single flowers or bouquets, along with provocative text, is my contemporary interpretation to this tradition of cautious exchange.

Martin Mazorra
United States
I am a Brooklyn based artist, originally from West Virginia. I work chiefly in the medium of printmaking, specifically woodcut. I have chosen woodcut for its tradition of social satire, its immediacy, and its history in the service of populist communication. The woodcuts are often combined with hand-carved type or letterpress. Wooden type has a similar appeal. It has a handmade, tactile quality, references history and popular culture, and fortifies the significance of the accompanying imagery. I have been the recipient of a New York Foundation of the Arts Fellowship in Printmaking, Drawing and Artist Books, and a United States Artists Ford Foundation Fellow. My work is in the collections of the Yale Museum of Art, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, the Taubman Museum, West Virginia University, and the Fort Wayne Museum of art.
