A discussion in progress from the × Artist Image Resource Constellation Residency.
One of the most meaningful parts of this residency has been the exchange of ideas between artists. During a discussion, Madame Dolores shared her approach to collaboration: the freedom to create new configurations. She invited AIR’s printmaking staff to deconstruct and reconstruct essential symbolic shapes into new work, each piece in relation to the larger body of work and its meaning.
Pictured here is Madame Dolores in conversation with Bob.
“Concussion is bearing witness to a partner’s pain, their death and awakening. The sound of pain, the sound of the hospital. The experience of care constricted by gender roles, Stubborn man/Hysterical woman, and ingratitude it renders as it demolishes a relationship.”
Watching these personal narratives emerge through printmaking has been one of the most rewarding parts of this residency. Each artist brings their own history, voice, and visual language, expanding the constellation in unexpected ways.

“This print is the beginning of a new body of work based on photographs I took in the Philippines the summer of 2024. The images comprise the kalachuchi flower, or temple flower; the kinnari gold vessel, which depicts the half-woman, half-bird from Hindu Buddhist tradition and is considered a jewel of pre-colonial Philippine art; and ancient baybayin script. The script is a translation of a poem I wrote, a prayer poem of protection.”

Here, Veronica Corpuz is in conversation with Jacob at Artist Image Resources (AIR), discussing the ideas and imagery that are shaping this new body of work. The project is currently being developed as part of the residency in partnership with Artist Image Resources, where artists are exploring new directions through printmaking, dialogue, and experimentation.

Right in the middle of this residency with and , it feels like we’re all planting different seeds, each of us finding our own way into printmaking. Thank-you Bob, Jacon,Erin, and everyone at . Every conversation opens another door, and I can’t wait to see what grows from these ideas.

Here I am, in conversation with Bob from Artist Image Resource, brainstorming ideas for my residency work.

My practice looks at social justice, and at hatred that hides inside beautiful things. We’re living in divided times. I want to understand how the same symbol can mean devotion in one place and hate in another.

I’m working with imagery from my stapled, incense-burned drawings, made in response to injustices against marginalized communities. I’m layering in symbols with more than one history. Some were taken by the West and turned into symbols of hate. In many Eastern traditions, the same forms still mean birth and creation.

What’s underneath the meaning we’ve inherited?

Exploring themes of hypervigilance, womanhood, and motherhood in this late-stage capitalist hellscape, these conversations are part of the thinking, questioning, and experimentation that shape the work long before it reaches the press.
