The artist known as Swoon has used a variety of mediums to create whimsical worlds and captivating portraits throughout her work, both for the street and the museum. But her latest large-scale installation, which is on view at the Javits Center in Manhattan, centers on one method the artist is well acquainted with: printmaking.

The mixed-media installation was commissioned as part of this year’s Fine Art Print Fair, which is presented by the International Fine Print Dealers Association and brings together galleries and publishers from all over the world. Through Sunday, Oct. 27, visitors can view the site-specific installation, which unfolds across a 24-foot-wide wall at the convention center, and nods to both traditional and modern printmaking techniques.

“ It’s like a celebration of printmaking in general,” the artist, born Caledonia Curry, said of the piece in a phone interview. “I tried to bring together all the various forms and various ways that I’ve used the print medium over the years,” including paper cutouts, pattern repetition, etching and block printing.

Etchings of the artist’s family and friends adorn the left side of the wall, evoking an Old World feel , while the right side incorporates vivid, large-scale block prints that Swoon says “feel unmistakably modern.” It also includes interactive elements, like jewelry boxes people can open, and a set of doors that sat on one of the rafts Swoon built and sailed on years ago to the Venice Biennale.
