In her 1996 monoprint on paper, Ann Woodward presents us with a wonderfully experimental work, depicting long strands of straw on an opaque background. On first glance, this work is darkly toned, with exception for the silhouette of grassy straw which stands starkly bright against the black background. Where on the left, the organic subject matter is captured in great detail, on the right, the straw is barely visible. Here, Woodward presents us with a poetic comparison: what is and what was.

This work is in many ways ephemeral: its subject matter is fleeting, the sway of long grass captured in print. As a monoprint, this work is also entirely unique - a one of a kind impression. Thoughtful and rare, this work would make an excellent addition to the collection of anyone fascinated by nature, printmaking, and the ephemeral.
