DESCRIPTION

The moving discs in this work have lithographic drawings on either side of the disc. Movement and rotation cause these drawings to transform from flat, geometric planes of color into convex and concave objects that are suspended in motion. Although the mind knows the “true” status of the work, the eyes question the dimensionality. The color incorporated heightens the optical illusions.
