Ritha Mason, Victoria, BC, CANADA

In 1987, Ritha coined the word etings for the artwork she makes from found objects or recycled material. The term originated when she was invited to participate in a group art show at the McPherson Playhouse Gallery in Victoria, British Columbia, and a typographical error in the program stated that she would be displaying "etings" instead of "etchings." When she seized on this typographical error as a definition of her recycled art, etings became synonymous with her work.
