Monica DeSalvo
"Dressed Up Properties", Abstract, Pink, Red, Yellow, Blue, Mixed Media, 2023

2023

About the Item

Monica DeSalvo’s “Dressed Up Properties” is a 22 x 30 inch triptych composed of three abstract acrylic monoprints with leaf forms. Red, yellow, royal blue, magenta, pink, sky blue, and hints of green and orange run from bright and crisp to muted and distressed. Handwritten math equations are exposed through the imagery on the left and right panels printed on vintage ruled notebook paper. The middle panel contains felt texture impressions and is on archival paper. The ruled paper and homework once belonged to DeSalvo’s late father, and the title is excerpted from one of his quotes. DeSalvo regularly experiments with Gelli printing onto his documents. The work is on archival printmaking paper with deckled edges at the top and bottom. It is hinge-mounted with archival linen tape onto a sheet of 24.5 x 32.25 inch archival foamcore, providing a rigid surface with a border (approximately 1.25 inches) for framing. The signature is 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.
