Tuttle's work is composed of fragile beauty assembled and transformed from the experience of everyday life. Always experimenting, in these prints, Tuttle manipulated the process of silkscreen by using guided blasts of water directly on the screen to form the imagery of the mylar overlay. As with his works in general, Tuttle continues to investigate the perceptive and cognitive boundaries of the visual field.
