For Screen (Double Desert Inverted), Kevin Appel enlarged a found image until its granular CMYK rosettes were revealed. Flipped and repeated, the image then received layers of "interference" in the form of details extracted from one of Appel's photographs of the Salton Sea and rhythmic white triangles. Seen through this screen of architectonic abstraction, the final composition offers a view of nature that is at once recognizable and disorienting.
