Salty
By Michele Oka DonerSalty was created for Exile Books & Printed Matter, Inc. and printed by Extra Virgin Press. It brings to life with ink and paper a signature image from A Walk on the Beach at Miami International Airport, the work of art that celebrates the beauty of Miami’s surrounding waters and the life forms within that exist beyond the reach of our gaze. Salty visualizes the presence of salt in those waters by depicting the crystallization process, particles of salt lined up along the axis to form beautiful, intersecting formations. This structure lends both the imagined image, and life itself, energy and spark. We have within an internalized ocean necessary for our body to thrive, binding us to Salty’s magical presence, mixing our blood with golden ink.
