JUNE WAYNE・Art + Science
The Terrestrial Works
Winds
“Throughout her career Wayne has dealt with the representation of natural phenomena, large and small, tangible and intangible: optics, genetics, tidal pulls, tidal waves, nuclear energy, solar energy, and seismic energy.”
“Time, touch, and memory are important because the zinc is dark and the tusche is dark, so what I can see is not exactly what is there. One has to be in touch the way a pianist is in touch, remembering kinetically as well as aurally how the previous notes and phrases were played.”
“There are no two alike of Night Wind. After it was inked, I would drop little puddles of sugar onto the plate; the press would smash them, and they would act as a stop-out going through the press.”
