Print on paper 21.5" x139". Limited Edition

This is a print derived from the Picnic multimedia mural. The image is printed in a limited edition on paper in three sections. When displayed, the three sections are aligned in such a way to make the whole image.

Radiating outwards from the center, image of us, at play, and at work. The mural examines our efforts to understand our place in the world, whether through our private thoughts or our religious practices. The recurring rectangles of imagery echo the rectangular windows of our current visual culture - video screens, film screens, the floating windows of our computer screens.
