"BLACK SHEEP" Giclée Print
This painting is of a small scale sheep farm just outside of Iowa City. Small family scale farms have become the standalone “black sheep” in an industry where there are “fewer than one-third as many [family scale farms existing] today compared to twenty years ago” (foodandwaterwatch.org). I’m interested in how agriculture, something so human and natural, became so bastardized by industrialization. How it’s seemingly making us sick with rising cancer rates and a water pollution crisis that’s co-signed by our local and federal policy makers. The original piece is part of the larger body of work titled “Flyover State”, an exhibition on life and the perceptions of the Midwest.
Printed on Moab Archival Paper using Archival Grade Pigment-based Inks.
13x19 is on 300 gsm paper, 8.5x11 is on 190 gsm paper.
Art printed with a 1/2 in white border.
Please allow 7-10 days for shipping! These are printed to order.
