Cutting Out CONYT 6

Lorraine O'Grady's Cutting Out CONYT 7 diptych with fragmented newspaper phrases on Japanese paper, reflecting existential themes.

Letterpress printing dipthych on Japanese paper, cut-out, collage on laid paper, each sheet hand signed, numbered and dated by the artist. // Lorraine O'Grady's Cutting Out CONYT 7 is a mixed-media diptych from her iconic series, exploring themes of language, identity, and cultural critique. Created through a collage of cut-out words and phrases from The New York Times, each phrase suggests poetic and contemplative ideas, such as Do Something about the weather and Brings New Life to Becoming an Extinct Species. The fragmented text and varied typography invite readers to form their own interpretations, transforming familiar words into reflections on existential themes. Printed on delicate Japanese paper, this limited edition (12+1) collage engages with text as both visual art and conceptual exploration.

What is appropriation?

Appropriation in art involves using pre-existing images or objects with little or no modification. This technique has played a significant role across various art forms, including visual arts, music, performance, and literature. In visual arts, appropriation refers to the practice of adopting, sampling, recycling, or borrowing elements—or even entire forms—of existing visual culture, integrating them into new works to create meaning or critique.
