Amalgam is populated by impressionistic figures, rendered with piercing faces staring down the reader, as if out of an old photograph. Some pages are mini epics depicting the struggle of workers, others are haunting vignettes of abandoned dolls and forgotten friends. It’s also a love letter to Jetter’s mother, Rose, who hovers in the artist’s mind like a ghost — forever impressed upon the stairs, at once ephemeral and pervasive, like Rose’s lost paper doll. One’s life is not only one’s own, but hinges on every other.
Twelve years in the making, Amalgam, true to its name, takes a multimedia approach to its story. Presented as a meditation on memory and legacy, a kind of summoning occurs out of the loving patchwork of linocuts, keyholes, and hinges — and the presence of the dead is felt once again. There is a profound, understated moral power in Jetter’s remembrance of loved ones, etching their essences in the same linoleum material that made up the floors of her childhood.
