Works by Rebecca Ustrell
Exhibit Permanence


Permanence is a video and photography series documenting my collaborations with various Pitzer College courses as the Activist Artist in Residence for 2023-24. Using one of the oldest methods of photography - cyanotype - I print photographic negatives onto acetate using an inkjet printer, layer them onto chemically sensitized paper, expose them to UV light, and process them in water to create brilliant Prussian blue prints onto paper and handmade ceramic tiles. These photographs celebrate community collaboration, explore the embodiment of student and teacher, and reinforce the impact of access. The use of repetitive imagery explores what it means to pass down a story, and how those stories may fade over time or reappear from a different perspective. As part of the experimental nature of this body of work, I challenge you to explore how your viewpoint alters your mood and perspective on the subject matter.
 
Rebecca Ustrell is an artist, educator, and documentarian in the Inland Empire of Southern California. In 2018 after a long period of creative burn-out, she leaned into her life-long passion for printed ephemera and founded Curious Publishing, a non-profit artbook publishing company which focuses on archiving stories and creating wealth by supporting queer, BIPOC, and femme creatives through small-run artbooks, zines, and print collections. She was the Activist Artist in Residence for the Community Engagement Center at Pitzer College from 2023-2024, the chair of the Exhibition Subcommittee for Contemporary Art at Chaffey Community Museum of Art, and is the Event Coordinator for the Museum Arts & Culture Department at the City of Ontario.
