The Ribbon Series genesis was the “Support our Troops” ribbon-shaped car magnets that became ubiquitous during the U.S. invasion of Iraq in 2003. As the symbol was adopted for other causes and became a cultural shorthand, I began tracing and experimenting with various designs using the ribbon shape to create mixed media paintings, sculptures and installations made from rolls of printmaking paper.
