Tender mouth tissue
Risograph & letterpress-printed series
2024

20% of all sales are split between HEAL Palestine and Sudan Solidarity Collective.

These prints were originally created for an ice cream shop. I was wondering if the bliss of eating ice cream might teach us something about violence, vulnerability, and our shared humanity. These "mouths" are the result.

All of the imagery and text for the Tender mouth tissue series are sourced from the vintage type collection at Flower City Arts Center. I letterpress printed the imagery and text, cut up and arranged the prints, then risographed each collage.

Tender mouth tissue prints are for sale on a sliding scale, please click on the artwork to see price ranges and other information.

Tender mouth tissue was created for an exhibition at Hedonist Ice Cream in Rochester, NY
