Artist Statement:

The “Infinity Gauntlet" was a comic book crossover series published by Marvel Comics between July and December of 1991.  I was seven years old.  

I discovered comic books  a few years later, and voraciously devoted time to learning the connectivity of all of the plot lines and the broad histories of each hero and villain.  Like many artists, comic books gave me the first glimpse into mythology, and an initial understanding of design and color.  

The Infinity Gauntlet: Amended Text is a meditation. Its content is derived from four Xerox copies of the first issue of the “Infinity Gauntlet” comic book.  Copies were separated by page and collaged only with content from single 2 page spreads. This format offers a loose continuity that mimics the pace of the original publication and integrates the advertisements that interrupt the narrative. Each collage was put together with scissors, razor blades and scotch tape.
