Over het boek
For-Get-Me-Not consists of works made from found cabinet cards and cartes-de-visite that were collaged and painted on. Each of Roybal’s additions is a beautiful and mysterious visual expression of her experience living with an invisible incurable disease. Roybal received a Fulcrum Fund to produce the book, For-Get-Me-Not:Words and Images on Living with Incurable Cancer, to raise awareness about this disease. Selections from this project were recently acquired by the Albuquerque Museum. Roybal passed away in late 2018 after living with stage IV metastatic breast cancer for more than seven years.
Valerie Roybal (1969–2018) was an artist, graphic designer, curator, educator, and advocate. Roybal had an interdisciplinary practice which included collage, sculpture, assemblage, printmaking, letterpress, and embroidery. Her work has been exhibited internationally and can be found in the permanent collections of the New Mexico Museum of Art, the Albuquerque Museum, the National Hispanic Cultural Center, the Tamarind archive at UNM Art Museum, the Bernalillo County Public Art Collection. She was the recipient of a prestigious Pollock-Krasner Artist Grant in 2015.
All the proceeds from your purchase of this book will be donated to Living Beyond Breast Cancer (LBBC). LBBC provides programs and services to help people whose lives have been impacted by breast cancer.

Over de maker
sheri crider
Albuquerque, NM
Originally intended to support regional artists by providing exhibition space at no charge, this naive impetus has grown to a complicated understanding of cultural systems. sheri crider actively seeks to expand the critical capacity of art making by employing strategic curatorial practices and programming to undermine structural inequities in the art world. The last five years alone, exhibitions and programming showcased the work of near exclusively queer and underrepresented communities.The Sanitary Tortilla Factory has been solely supported through sweat equity and an occasional artist grant.
