'Aleph Annaghmakerrig' by Mary Neubauer, 2010; 18" x 18", Digital Lambda Print of 3D virtual objects.

"Yes, the only place on earth where all places are -- seen from every angle, each standing clear, without any confusion or blending." Carlos Argentino Daneri, from 'The Aleph' by Jorge Luis Borges.

This summer was spent at the Tyrone Guthrie Centre, at remote Annaghmakerrig Lake, in Ireland. I created a new series of work consisting of on-site observations of the natural world: rampant forests, the eternally cycling lives of myriad small creatures, the rhythms of the small geographies that make up the texture of rural Monaghan County. I made photographs every day and wove these images into surface maps: digital 2D images wrapped around three-dimensional forms. I inserted interference patterns and added qualities of light and transparency. Gradually the shapes and patterns became codified in what I call the Aleph series. They are crystalline distillations, facets of the observed world. All self-contained, encapsulated into concise visual memory.
