Mosaic Vision

Mosaic vision is a scientific term for how some insects see, through multiple
ocular windows, or, ommatidia, to perceive a single image. I love this metaphor and
concept as a lens through which to explore perspective and perception.  

This new work directly explores layered perception by playing with
altered iterations of past work including parts of architectural installations,
graffiti pasteups and street photography, including
photos I've taken in New Orleans, Paris, Toulouse and California...
and photos of people's eyes who live in communities where I have worked.
