Black and White Tourists Visit Egypt

 2006      12 x 19”    30 x 47.5 cm      Hand Pulled Serigraph      18 stencils      Edition 51   A.P. 7

One of the magical things I find when visiting tourist spots, is that occasionally you will run into complete strangers, and strike up a conversation, as if you have known each other forever. In "Black and White Tourists Visit Egypt," I explore the opportunity to exchange cultural differences, and perspectives, using animals which are obviously from different continents, in the spectacularly colorful setting of an Egyptian Pyramid. The Hieroglyphs, (which are phonetically based), do contain a pearl of wisdom.
