Betty’s Interstellar Frigate

30 x 24 inches

Collage, India ink, and acrylic paint on wood panel

A collaboration with sketches from my mom’s 1950s sketchbook, Betty’s Interstellar Frigate shows a Frigate traversing space. Space is represented by the phonetic alphabet used by aviators, a metaphor for space and matter and the persistence of memories and words. The Interstellar Frigate carries her across universes.
