SHAWN BITTERS
Panel Session I1: At the Core:
Printmakers and Geologies
SHAWN BITTERS constructs printed-paper sculptures and installations based off of geological phenomena. These paper/rock formations and events are composed of various sets of 26 distinct stones, one stone for each letter of the english alphabet. Using print-media he prints thousands of these stones in various scales and colors to encode personalized landscapes with his own language, order, and narrative. In his modest way he is constructing a new nature. These landscapes have the contradictory aim of creating a convincing illusion of a reality that flaunts it’s own constructs and narratives.
