Printmaking has been central to Joe Feddersen’s practice from the beginning, and his interest in basket weaving began with using motifs such as triangular mountain designs in his prints. Feddersen often combines such motifs with modern imagery and modernist abstraction, as in these monotypes. The use of spray paint and graphic rendering connects his work with popular forms such as graffiti. The idea for the drips, Feddersen related, came from Warhol’s famous quip about Abstract Expressionism à la Jackson Pollock that goes something like “without the drips it’s not art.”
