In 2005 I returned to working digitally with Encounters. This return was prompted by a number of intercontinental moves which necessitated working methods appropriate to a mobile lifestyle. In this body of work I wanted to integrate my earlier digital methods with visual ideas I had explored in Crossroads, such as layering, grouping, and visual density.

For more background information, as well as documentation of my working process for this series see the Introduction to Encounters section of 8 Bodies in 12 Years: Images and Sculptures 1994-2006.
