This work is unique and is registered in The Jay DeFoe Trust under Estate number P1226I.

A gelatin silver print mounted by the artist, this unique work exemplifies Jay DeFeo's exploratory approach to photography as a medium for artistic expression. Registered in The Jay DeFeo Trust under Estate number P1226I, the piece reflects her meticulous hand in its presentation, with the artist's own mounting process becoming an integral part of the work's identity. As with much of DeFeo's practice, the photograph bridges the boundary between documentation and autonomous art object.
