A Blind Faith in Our Own Biology

Every print has it’s own unique requirements, to capture or draw each element to creat the final image I have invisioned. “A Blind Faith in Our Own Biology” required me to dawn a scuba tank to photograph my model Gary underwater floating in a pool to give the impression of weightless spirit.

Other images were gathered from a vatiety of sources. The ocean at the top of the print was photographed on a stormy winter day at Makapu’u Beach on the island of Oahu.

The “blind” face on the far left of the print was photographed at the Victoria & Albert Museum in London while other images were appropriated from antique books and a discarded pelvic X-ray. This process of gathering elements, placing them in new combinations to create an original unique expression is just one of the challenges that stimulates me and drives my work.

“A Blind Faith in Our OwnBiology” was created from 31 separate lithographic plates printed in London at Artichoke Print Workshop on a hand operated offest proofing press and on a Brandt Direct litho press at the Honolulu Printmakers workshop in Hawaii in 1997.
