About the Item
Monica DeSalvo’s “A Bus Tour in the Woods—Stage 5” is a 22 x 30 inch triptych with three collages on acrylic monotypes with black, gray, dark and lime greens, orange, pink, purple, and white. Botanical and abstracted forms ranging from crisp to distressed are printed on vintage papers—ruled math homework, cream ledger paper with handwriting, and graph paper—once belonging to DeSalvo’s late father. Many of the collage elements are fragments of monotypes, and all monotypes were created by using a Gelli plate. DeSalvo regularly prints onto her father’s paper memorabilia and incorporates it into her work. DeSalvo’s A Bus Tour in the Woods series was inspired by foliage along a footpath on the island of Skopelos in Greece and an enchanting hallucination that DeSalvo’s father recounted during his decline and memory loss.
The work is on archival printmaking paper with deckled edges at the top and bottom. It is mounted with archival tape onto a sheet of 24.5 x 32.25 x 0.1875 inch archival foamcore, providing a rigid surface with a border (approximately 1.25 inches) for framing. The signature and title are written below the image.
Monica DeSalvo is a Boston-based mixed-media artist and designer with a BFA in Visual Design from the University of Massachusetts, Dartmouth. Her work has been featured in juried and invitational exhibitions, as well as in several periodicals, and is part of collections in the United States and Europe. DeSalvo is represented by Fountain Street Gallery based in Boston.
