Mat Maker

Maya Artists and Artisans of Guatemala, a relief print series
by Marilyn Anderson

These black and white wood and linoleum cut prints are produced in editions of 150 on warm-toned handmade archival paper with black or dark blue oil-based ink.

The images show artists and artisans using clay, various fibers, leather, metal and other materials to make their traditional arts as they have done for millennia. By using the medium of relief cut printing, which requires a combination of artistic and craft skills, I hope my work echos the Maya spirit of creative self sufficiency and fine workmanship.
