Collagraph monoprint, 20 x 22". I made this one in April, 2010, using two stencils and several plates. I played around with the gear shape again, this time seeing it as a window. You might feel like your looking forward or downward (if you see it the way I do). I also wanted to play around with the negative space in the middle and around the outside, allowing the plates and press to not only transfer ink to the paper but to emboss the paper (like a copperplate would do). The more I worked with the materials, the more I saw countless possibilities to create different imagery. I felt this piece especially emphasized the variety of perspectives viewers could take as they look at and think about the work. This piece was displayed in a show at the Rotunda Gallery on the University of Nebraska-Lincoln's city campus in November, 2010.
