This commissioned work is inspired by scanning electron microspope photograhs of bone, and the site in which it is installed; a radiology waiting room suite.  The work abstracts the micro-architecture of bone with its large scale, tactile dimensionality and vibrant colors.

Conceptualized to be in conversation with patients awaiting imagery of their inner worlds, I shifted the focus from diagnosis and pathology towards an invitation of contemplative abstraction. The project is a meditation on the invisible universal microcosm inside all of us, that is confluent with the greater macrocosm that surrounds us.

The work was fabricated in coordination with master papermakers at Dieu Donné Papermill in Brooklyn New York
