I have to say, I'm really impressed by the quality and quantity of Joan's new work. I believe the words "she's on fire" would be appropriate to use in this case. Joan has taken a totally different direction with her work, while still utilizing the principles established in her past work [ check out Joan's interview from January 2012, http://graphicechoes.blogspot.com/2012/01/joan-moffitt.html ]. The palette is fresh and unexpected, the lines are energetic, and the movements performed by the figures render their agonizing sensations. These prints were made by translating a 2-D image of her sculptures into a linocut, cutting up the plate, and using them to create these spiny figures, which she will then in turn create sculptures from.
