The moebius strip, a single-sided surface, is created by putting a twist
in a long
rectangular piece of paper and gluing the ends together. If you trace
your finger
around a moebius strip you move infinitely around on a single surface;
inside
becomes outside, outside becomes inside, up becomes down, and down up.

Because of these ambiguities a moebius seemed an appropriate metaphor
for
exploring the enormity and complexity of this catastrophic event.

The eight moebius strips also form a spectrum. Just as a single color is a component part of the spectrum each print, marked by a single central color band, focuses an aspect. |

Like all collages these prints were made from found and created visuals,
however, rather held together by glue these images were united digitally.

These have been printed as glicée prints. Though displayed flat each
print
forms a moebius strip when repeated or combined with additional
companion
prints..
