I am continuing to work on the Diatopia Series, a take-off on diatoms, the microscopic geometric animals found in ponds. I am attracted by the orderliness of their geometric forms and their ragged edges; it is their quick movements which identify them as animals and add to the chaotic existence of pond life seen through a lens.

 

After finally finding a framer who makes round frames, I am free to rid myself of the rectangular format in favor of the microscope's viewer. And thereby to remind you that the world is round, not flat.
