Biographical Information
"This is a stream of conscious sort of print. It is a little like looking through a microscope at an image. When looking through a microscope you can only see small areas in focus and as you slide the image about you focus on one area after another. But if looking at a large object can never see the whole. So this is a composite of certain detailed areas highlighted within the whole." Boyden, 1991
