Mylar (clear)

Printed at the artist's studio, 130 Greene Street, New York, NY by Clayton Pond

Published by Clayton Pond

The artist printed the title of the suite, "Things in My Studio", in light blue on clear Mylar. Each suite is packaged in a red portfolio box. The Mylar title page is laid over the first print in each portfolio box. The transparency allows the viewer to see through to the first print in the suite.

This suite is a continuation of the artist's fascination with everyday objects found in his studio environment. He moved his studio from Broome Street to Greene Street in the center of the SoHo section of Manhattan in 1969. This suite focuses on scenes and objects in his Greene Street studio. The artist uses color and his sense of humor to make ordinary objects into images that are iconic-- so that an ordinary roll of bathroom tissue, a toilet seat, and a toaster oven become something much more than they are in real life.
