Extraction State > Paintings/Drawings

Drawings based on images and text found in the Butte Archives and the World Museum of Mining, Butte, Montana. This research was conducted in April, 2008, while I was a resident at the Montana Artists Refuge, Basin, MT. I am interested in the role that immigrants and women played in the mining history of Butte.
