36 minutes of veiny florals

The Design Center of Philadelphia University | Alyson Provax

 

The Time Wasting Experiment project by printmaker and fiber artist, Alyson Provax, pairs nicely with swatches from the Design Center.

The Time Wasting Experiments are an ongoing series of letterpress prints I've been producing which document time wasted. These are in part inspired by tracking 'billable hours' but also come from the compulsion to always be doing things and producing objects. This series is a sort of audit of how I spend my time, but the prints could also be thought of as permission slips allowing you to spend a period of time in a wasteful way. This project is ongoing...made with hand-set 10pt Caslon lead type, and printed on an old Vandercook press that is affectionately known around the studio as Tony.
