Little Paper Planes is pleased to introduce our first June 2011 artist, Michael Swaney, and to offer nine exclusive prints of his work.

Artist Michael Swaney composes his collages as if he were an anthropologist or a filmmaker. Hordes of miniature people form strange tableaux, architecture and interiors are parsed and studied in hallucinogenic detail.  Swaney is occupied with the urgent question of who we are and what marks we leave on the world. His images, in spite of their crowded nature,or because of it, allow us to step back and consider what strange creatures we are.

These prints are 8.5 x 11" and are offered individually. They are printed with Epson Ultra Chrome archival inks on Hahnemuhle German etching paper. The sizes reflect actual paper size, not image size.

Each print is hand numbered, in an edition of 50, along with Michael’s signature printed in the border. Each print also comes with a Certificate of Authenticity printed on the back. This print is exclusive to Little Paper Planes.
