Squaring the circle
silkscreen prints
Squaring the Circle series are bright, bold silkscreen prints inspired by the ancient Greek riddle of “squaring the circle,” as an expression of balance and beauty. "Squaring the circle" means bringing together two things which are normally thought to be so different that they cannot exist together. Exploring formal qualities of color interaction and a sense of geometrical playfulness, these prints can exist independently or hang together to make a wall-length frieze, encompassing a spirit of experimentation and expanded logic. Transparent and opaque color blocks shield and reveal delicate, ornate shapes, mosaic patterns, blended with the purity of modernism, flattening space, moving compositions into seriality and geometric abstraction.
