Dana Wood Zinsser was born in 1989 in New York. She studied drawing and printmaking at Pratt Institute, Brooklyn, and has worked in many prominent print shops in the city. She pulls from her experience as a master printer to create intricate drawings in pen and ink, watercolor, silkscreen and intaglio. Her works on paper explore paradoxes of embodiment, probe myths of beauty, ability, and age, and suggest a radical redistribution of normative values.
