Monica DeSalvo's


"Aerial Ferry" is a mixed media collage combining printmaking with paper memorabilia from her late father, a former aeronautics engineer. The piece pays homage to the dementia that he experienced at the end of his life. His fondness for structure and whimsy is represented by blending representational and abstract imagery on a background of vintage graph paper. The title and subject matter are inspired by his being jolted back to his time in the service at the end of WWII.
