Poppies will make you SleepyPoppies will make you Sleepy, 2026 Woodcut Edition of 30 29 3 4 x 21 3 4 in. Collaborative Printer: Alexis Nutini For her PrintLab residency, Ballard collaborated with master printer Alexis Nutini to develop a print that expresses the deliberate tension between beauty and violence that runs throughout her practice, what she calls the bitter and sweet. This work began in the archival holdings of the Library of Congress, HBCUs, and the Tulane Amistad

Mymain inspiration is the border

in the growth measurements of the economy

primarily in watercolor

and magentas are its reflections

to some the antithesis of nature

some of which that have been handmade

we provide that spirit a peaceful and loving resting place

They are like kanji characters

His approach humanizes the "otherness" of strangers

painted surfaces with drawn petroglyph-like forms and collaged elements (including photographs

He wanted to capture all of it
