MARILYN PROPP and DAVID JONES have been exhibiting together since 2006. Similar in their interest in machine parts and environmental concerns, Jones began as a photographer and printmaker, while Propp was primarily a painter.  David has moved toward combining digital manipulation with hand printmaking; Marilyn is producing handmade paper and relief prints. 

David and Marilyn are co-founders of Anchor Graphics, Chicago, 1990-2015, and Anchor Press, Paper & Print (AP3), Milwaukee, WI. www.anchorpresspaperandprint.org

MARILYN PROPP   My current work, Notes from the Sea, reflects the clash/coexistence between the industrial and the natural worlds. Industrial debris, machine parts, and marine life are entangled or morph into one another; a vision of the future where accommodation is the result. Handmade paper and relief prints are my primary media.

DAVID JONES   Layers of memory, palimpsests: visions reused and altered, but bearing traces of their earlier forms; slices of time and experiences.  I input my photo images, and, using the programming language Max, I write custom software systems, creating new images through distortions and repetitions. There are myriads of combinations.
