This piece is inspired by how changes in the landscape are hidden or revealed as you move through a space.  This came together as I was backpacking through the Cloud Peak Wilderness in Wyoming, and how a single landmark such as a peak can remain consistent as the terrain continually shifts.  I wanted this suite of prints to reflect the feeling of becoming disoriented in a landscape, and when you can spot and find the landmark that positions yourself, will it draw you in further or will you realize your mistake and turn around.  

This suite of images uses two copper plates as my "consistent" image that repeats throughout the 15 prints.  I relief printed from stone onto mulberry paper that was later cut and chine-collé'd when printing the plates.
