Ode to OCAC
Calendar of Marilyn Zorando while teaching at OCAC
This book is a playful exploration into one of my favorite forms, the flag book. This was done at the Oregon College of Art and Craft at a class taught by Marilyn Zorando. She often offered up her old Japanese calendars for use in our work. You can see in spots her notes to herself to teach class, to run errands and more.
The Oregon College of Art and Craft is no more, which was a great loss to the art community in Portland, OR. This piece is an ode to Marilyn and the Oregon College of Art and Craft. However, I purposely incorporated the element of time because life is all about change, and it ends one day. This is a small reminder to cherish each day, each moment and to always create when we can to leave a little something that tells people our stories.
