“Proof,” the work of Graham McDougal, a lecturer in the art department and specialist in printmaking and electronic imaging, was exhibited in Tjaden Hall in December. “Proof” documents his project for the Cornell Council for the Arts entitled Insert–Paisdoni, which was the first in a series of projects based around self-publication and ephemera. The multiple image is a custom paisley pattern laser cut from vellum, designed to overlay magazine pages. Approximately 200 individual pages have been mailed to curators, critics, and art professionals beyond Cornell. Each mailing contains a vellum paisley pattern and a torn magazine page.
