Ethel Shipton's print series, Which Way To Go (2021), encompasses her ability to combine everyday observations with considerations of the linguistic conditionality and narrative created through text. Based on photos of exit signs on the highway, Which Way to Go gives relevance to the small Texas towns at each mark, emphasizing the significance of local and regional communities by calling attention to places in Texas that are often overlooked. Her focus on signage observed along Texas roadways is an ongoing project that began in 2014. By transforming the photographs into monochromatic prints, Shipton places the graphic quality of the setting and elements of the built environment at the forefront of the composition. Happy (2021) is a brightly colored print of the Town of Happy roadway sign located in Randall and Swisher Counties, Texas.
