THE BODY REPEATS THE LANDSCAPE: A SERIES OF PRINTS

This series of prints results from separate explorations of various printing techniques (woodcut, etching, screen print, and monotype), which are utilized in a search for the expressive potential of each. The work expresses the deep emotional and spiritual connection between the figure and the natural world, realized through a physical and mental retreat to stillness and silence. This inward contemplation is paralleled by the outward manifestation of the individual's state through the surrounding landscape. The figure and landscape are united, flowing into and out of each other, and evoke a similar response within the viewer.
