6 x 4 inch and 8 x10 inch : Binocular Vision (Prints)
Giclee Semi Glossy Prints
Just before bed, as a kid, I would simultaneously try to concentrate on two objects at once. I would attempt one eye on the window, one eye on my feet. My eyes would switch between points rapidly until I developed a mild headache. I later learned that if I had eyes like a chameleon, I would lack the ability to focus on details. Adjusting perspectives is inherently a human trait. In my composition, I incorporated a reference of a distorted head to a favorite art piece, “The Ambassadors” by Hans Holbein. Looking at The Ambassadors at first glance, one generally misses the malformed skull. After a second glimpse, the bones look like an odd blur. After changing the viewer’s physical perspective, viewing the obscure object looks like a painted skull, a memento mori. If we did not change our perspective, we would never grow and view hidden details (visually and metaphorically). My Binocular Vision prints incorporates a chaotic view of multiple perspectives of the same bodies, objects, and obscurities.
