Color Field

Intersecting multi-colored lines, mix and blend to create a shifting color field that ebbs and flows, recedes and advances. At the same time, the print is also dizzying and jarring, creating optical illusions.

Hand routed relief cut lines are inked with a color blend. To achieve this larger scale the print is made up of smaller units printed on Gampi paper which are then mounted and tiled together to a larger sheet, each panel will is 3’ x 6' and is hung together seamlessly.
