The still lives, portraits and landscapes atop various styles of glossy dinnerware create juxtapositions of texture, materials, and imagery. The pieces provoke 'thinking outside the frame' as they present a blend of traditionally framed art with everyday objects.

Still Life in Brown:
As each set in the Altered Perspectives series is made from different paintings, and plates made by various producers of European tableware, each finished set is unique.
