About The Work
This edition is a part of a publishing project by Rob Tufnell where artists created new works on the perforated paper commonly used for the distribution of LSD. Typically labeled with elaborate designs, this “blotter” paper provides a medium that at once looks back to the shamanic, drug-induced rituals of prehistory and to the signatory grid of Modernism. Here, Laura Owens–known for appropriating from all genres of art history, high or low–creates a polka dot pattern out of various sets of cartoon googly eyes.
