The series also includes two screen prints and a video. Although the pieces lose a dimension, they maintain every bit of the psychedelic awe found in her other pieces. The screen prints use geometric shapes and vivid colors to spellbind, similar to her 3D work. The video goes in the opposite direction, maintaining interest with a constantly changing collage of moving images.
