Juror Karen Kunc stated about the selection process:
This is certainly a distinct honor and a challenging task, yet to see all these many submissions answers my innate curiosity to see new works and the range of print approaches that artists will take. This exhibition puts a light on the overall joy in making these monoprints for the artists, giving evidence of experimentation and awareness of color and materials which is paramount among the entries…
Thank you to all the artists who submitted and risked the ‘juror’s eye’ to test your work in the big picture, and to help us create an exhibition through a focused viewpoint. Your efforts are valuable and welcome. Congratulations to those selected for this important national exhibition. I appreciate all your trust. The audiences will enjoy this beautiful show in such an impressive museum.
