Letterpress printing dipthych on Japanese paper, cut-out, collage on laid paper, each sheet hand signed, numbered and dated by the artist. // Cutting Out CONYT 3 by Lorraine O'Grady is a thought-provoking diptych collage created between 1977 and 2017. This limited edition piece (12+1) uses letterpress text on Japanese paper, with cut-out words arranged across two panels. The phrases “DRACULA IS” and “ready when you are” juxtapose gothic intrigue with a sense of anticipation or readiness. The use of bold typography and the careful placement of text against the simplicity of white space draw the viewer's focus to the words, creating an open-ended narrative that invites various interpretations. O'Grady’s work often explores identity and language, and this collage exemplifies her ability to blend humor, mystery, and cultural critique in a minimalist format.
