The journey begins at Dundee Contemporary Art to produce a series of large-scale woodcut prints that can compress into a suitcase and reanimate into a sculptural installation. Following the creation of the work in Dundee, the Traveling Suitcase Installation Project will embark on an expedition of short-term pop-up exhibitions in Dundee, London, Berlin, Weimar and Venice.

Second State Press is pleased to present “Edge vs Oblivion” by Francine K. Affourtit, the 2014 recipient of the Cindi R. Ettinger scholarship. The works on view in the exhibition were created during or inspired by her month-long residency at Second State Press this past July. Francine’s proposal to investigate strategies for producing large-scale woodcut prints from a small press bed developed into an exploration of the conceptual pairing of method and form.
