About the Item

Munroe, who is formally trained as a printmaker, creates sublime paintings with imagery inspired by archetypal forms of the circle and the square. Employing tools and processes from her printmaking days and using everyday materials of enduring cultural significance—wax, paper, cloth, graphite and dye—Munroe’s abstract compositions are formed through a unique and intensive process of layering pigment and wax-infused linen and string in elemental geometric formations which are mounted on cloth or panel and often burnished to create a palimpsest-like, tactile surface. These works can be called “collage paintings” to capture the constructed nature of their form. Materials: Cloth, beeswax, gesso, paper board, rag mat board
