New Blood Art Statement
For Joanne Hummel-Newell, mark making and its deviation from cognitive processes can create a candid outcome.

Artist Statement
Collecting printed and handwritten ephemera is an important part of my creative process and this often dictates the subject matter. I gather things, scraps, shopping lists, tickets I have found on the street,at a train station, pockets, all of a particular appearance—discoloured, loved, lost, stained, beautiful and damaged.Pasted found notes or manuscripts are often employed because of my anthropological interest in mark-making. I’m fascinated by handwriting, telephone doodles and children’s scribbles. This ‘accidental art’ forms the basic rules of my compositions, ‘chance’, ’accident’ and ‘honesty’.
