In 1998, Álvarez Muñoz came to work with Katherine Brimberry at Flatbed on the print that is titled “Sweet Nothings.” The source for the image came from Celia’s innovative photographic images of objects which were placed on tiers of plexiglass over weathered concrete in natural sunlight creating a layered image. This was a pre-digital era and all layering was done with single exposures of black and white film. It was Celia’s wish that the print have a “candy-like” color, so Flatbed collaborated with the studio of Sam Coronado and his printer Brian Johnson to screen print the image using layers of color. The finished print has over ten color screen print runs. Over the color image, Brimberry worked with Álvarez Muñoz to create a letterpress relief plate to print the text in ink so transparent that only in the right light or angle it can be legible: “Saint Anthony would help you find anything, including novios, boyfriends provided you prayed to him for nine weeks.”
