cecelia chapman : rattlings and watercolors


"RATTLINGS with Randee Silv wordslab, Jeff Crouch music, Cecelia Chapman drawing/video 2020. We have a certain snake here in the United States and it has a rattle on it’s tale it shakes if you get too close, as a warning or it is scared. It is called a rattlesnake.



And the watercolors: 

XFILES from the series DRAWING THE LINE: In the summer of 2020 I started Drawing the Line realizing from now on out, survival would be determined not by politics, virus, economic hardship, locale, but where the red line was drawn in a persons’ everyday life. Could they? Did they have that privilege? Would they? Where would they draw the line? How? What would that look like? I have no answers. 9 x 12 in., 23 x 30 cm. Watercolor, Arches paper".
