Xray Lace



The extreme positive/negative effect of radiation images was derived from the prior experiment with the maple leaf figure /ground reversal. The sinus cavities and empty spaces in the skull are separated by filamentous bone, showing as white threads connecting and running through the dark shapes. This might lend itself to needle lace in allowing for more random attachment points for the tape. I want to look at possibilities for creating dimensional objects in space rather than simple flat lace. These images are a year apart and are a record of sustainable quality of life for the patient. The next one in the series will be the record of how sustainable this quality is.

  1. Sounds ominous. Glad the pix aren't any clearer to me, a non radiologist, or I'd have to know how serious... Well, chin up, as they say! Ha! I made an anatomical joke without realizing it!!!!
