A series of drawing on tracing paper about the collision of Jewish ephemeral culture that itself becomes ephemeral in the collision with commercial culture. Most of these works were done in Kraków, Poland during a year that I spent studying art and visual culture on a Fulbright Fellowship. These drawings are done on tracing paper, a kind of skin upon which I could draw. Each of these traces reflect a kind of emerging language that presents a field of vision when Yiddish culture in the form of newspaper cartoons collided with a broader commercial culture, which in turn led to the former’s literal demise. These works mark an end of social innocence.
