Mixed medium, heavy paper stock, computer circuit boards and Charbonnel etching ink on hand made paper; red "beadwork" is made from satellite shots of the earth; blue "beadwork" is an electron microscopic view of a blue butterfly wing. Two sheets of handmade paper placed side by side overlapping and attached to a vertical strip of white paper. The panel of paper on the left is red and that on the right, blue. On the horizontal through the middle of the work sits a band; spaced along this band are what appear to be five circuit boards with bundles of painted paper tubes and between these, four medallions bearing painted rolls of paper, two with vertical crosses and two with diagonal crosses.
