Lauren Moore and I are screenprinting part of Lauren Nurse 's image (below) onto a 4' x 4' (approx.) piece of linoleum. Assisting us carve out this large-scale image is Melissa Cormier, Flora Shum, and the artist herself. We have lots of carving ahead of us. I'll be posting up more photos as the project progresses.
