The Shattered House lino cuts are based on a series of painted constructions from my Disaster Ship series which are based on a photograph from the 1917 Halifax Explosion. The Shattered House painted construction depicted in this entry is the American Linoleum version, c. 2012. You'll find more info about the Shattered House works deeper in the blog. The Shattered House lino cuts were printed by master printer Guillermo Trejo at the Ottawa School of Art printmaking studio in July 2022. The work was funded by the City of Ottawa arts funding program.
