Editor: This print by Terry Winters presents a woven form floating between textured bands. It feels almost like a diagram of something organic, yet contained. How do you interpret this work? Curator: It's funny, isn't it? The linear precision clashes with the suggestion of something biological, something unruly. I feel like Winters is showing us the tension between structure and chaos. Editor: So, not just one or the other, but the interplay between them? Curator: Exactly. Does that resonate with you at all? Editor: Definitely, it does make you think about the world in a new way. Curator: It does. And art should always give us something to ponder.

This work, from a portfolio called Set of Ten, is one of ten etchings based on the paintings Winters was working on concurrently. Winters often revisits ideas in different bodies of work, creating sets and subsets of works that interact with and inform each other. The images in these prints relate to Winters’ various interests in communications technology, social structures and microbiology.
