Shifting Surfaces: Developing a Visual Language with Emergent Patterns and Abstracted Bodies

Shifting Surfaces is an MFA thesis exhibition comprised of screenprints and sculptures. The written thesis contains documentation of the exhibition and a selection of related works, focusing on the progression of research and artmaking which led to the development of a new visual language. Shifting Surfaces employs emergent phenomena and abstraction to evoke the enmeshed relationship between bodies, ecology, and technology.
