Concurrent Perspectives
Visit the tArvis blog here.

Concurrent Perspectives is a series of abstract screen prints that explore perspective by layering multiple images into one. These multifaceted images of everyday subjects present a layering of perspectives that encourage a closer look at our surroundings and the consideration of different points of view.

These prints are created by combining new media with traditional printmaking. The creative process begins with digital photography. Original photos are edited, altered and arranged into compositions using creative software. The final digital composition is screen printed by hand returning the digital process to a traditional form of printing. 

The subject matter in the photography is found throughout Kansas City. Often the photographs feature man-made structures with strong patterns & geometric forms. Some of the subject matter, such as the overpasses & powerlines focus on connective infrastructures that are taken for granted. All of the objects are captured out of context. At night, on foot or up close. Changing the context of the subject matter allows it to be seen in a new way.
