Fortune Favors (Ceiling Unlimited; for Corita Kent) Silk-Cotton Scarf

$ 50

Edition of 20. From a series of three "Fortune Favors" collages produced by commission for Corita Day 2024 — a celebration of the life and work of Corita Kent at Los Angeles' Philosophical Research Society, curated by Mandy Kahn. Each collage was hand-printed onto a silk/cotton blend and roll-hemmed.

Each work is crafted exclusively of found materials from the January 1967 issue of Fortune magazine—the same year Corita Kent created such iconic pieces as Stop the Bombing and Power Up. These works resonate as powerfully today as when they were first conceived. The magazine, a snapshot of its time, brims with misogynistic slogans and reductive portrayals of women as secretaries and housewives. Through these collages, that negative messaging is eliminated and recontextualized, transforming outdated narratives into a tribute to Kent’s trailblazing, inclusive, and compassionate vision.

Blend of 50% silk, 50% cotton, the scarf measures 17.5" x 17.5" (45cm x 45cm), suitable as a unisex neckerchief or pocket square accent. Packaged in a hand-printed envelope. A proceed from each sale will benefit the Corita Art Center. Produced under my DEEP CANYON wearables imprint.

  • Photographic editions are printed on museum-grade archival stock. Different series use different textures and finishes, most commonly premium etching papers or pearlescent photo paper.
  • Posters are pretty on archival heavy card stock.
  • Dimensions refer to the size of the printed artwork and may, if shown, include a small border around the work. Standard framed works will thus be approximately 2–3" larger than the print size and shadowboxed works will be around 2–5" larger than the print size.
  • Customers in the U.S. and Canada may order prints custom framed in a range of styles and materials. Each frame is individually handmade to order specifically, for the print, in collaboration with my partners at Simply Framed.
  • If you'd like a frame style you've seen at simplyframed.com and it isn't available to add to cart, please get in touch and we can work together on a bespoke order.
  • Please allow an additional 7–14 days to expected delivery time for framed order.
