“Greetings from Knoxville” is a large-scale print installation which is concerned with cultural ways of representing place. This project addresses themes of tourism, the abstraction of 3D space, conceptualizing distances and the historic use of print media. Through a set of over-sized (4 x 6 feet) postcards of Knoxville made through reductive woodcut, the project uses the urban setting of Knoxville as an integral part of the piece, with a view of the Sunsphere in the distance as activated negative space.
