Caroline Thorington received a 2008 Creative Projects Grant from the
Arts Council of Montgomery County, MD., to create a suite of lithographs
entitled: Star Series: Twin Prints. Twin prints refers to
having related images. The project looks at the imagery of star constellations
and mythology. One of the Star Series prints, Taurus Reclines in the West
with the Pleiades Behind Him (B&S), is in the 2nd International
Printmaking Exhibition, a show of 48 works by artists from four countries.
It opened at the Amelie Gallery in Beijing, China in July of 2008 and will
travel to Korea, Canada and the United States through 2010.
The Star Series prints began in the Autumn of 2006. Originally planned as a
set of six star pictures, the Star Series immediately took on a life of its own and wandered
across the sky picking stars and constellations at random for contemplation and depiction.
