Artist Statement:
Cirque is a digital print. The image reflects my original photography of natural phenomena, in this case a hot springs terrace. Cirque explores visible patterns from nature, and is modified with computer manipulation to express visually a conception of the circle of life. The work represents the interconnections of the human condi¬tion while extending concepts of the perceptual aspects of organic form. Technical information: original image 35mm Fujii Velvia transparency, scanned into digital form with a Nikon Coolscan, modified with Adobe Photoshop on a Macintosh 8600. The print from the digital file was produced on a Canon Color Laser Copier.
