$100 from each sale will be donated to WYSO 91.3, the Yellow Springs NPR affiliate, in support of the important community and reporting work the station produces every day.
Art description: A relic of the Golden Age of air travel, when flying was a formal, almost ceremonial act... Printed on heavy cardstock and marked by smears of carbon wax, these tickets predate digital uniformity and algorithmic depersonalization. They belong to a time when journeys began with gestures like the tearing of a perforated tab and presentation of a document, rather than the sterile beep of a scanned QR code. The boarding pass functioned as both credential and artifact, embodying a slower, more tactile threshold between departure and arrival, serving as a physical souvenir of a journey.
Print runs for this exhibit are limited to 5 each, hand-signed, numbered, and stamp-authenticated by the artist. Works are printed on 13”x19” or 19”x13” 100% cotton rag with deckled and torn edges, using a 6-color, high resolution inkjet process. Print is mailed in a protective mailing tube, and comes with an identification tag as presented during the exhibit. Shipping and sales tax included in print price. Image shown at left is from original digital file, not from actual print.
