Nicole Pietrantoni: Alas, Alack

Interested in our complex relationship with the natural world, contemporary
printmaker Nicole Pietrantoni creates large-scale installations and works on paper that speak to the inevitability of competing stories and representations. Her innovative work combines digital and traditional printmaking techniques, most recently culminating in several series of accordion books that each expand to create panoramic landscapes covering entire walls and spilling out onto the floor. Within these vast pieces, she seeks to engage nature as an accumulation of processes, perceptions, and narratives—a dynamic and shifting site open for interpretation.
