Halocline: Where worlds meet by Roger Peet
Medium: July 2024 Relief Print Letterpress print Cranes Lettra Ecru Printmaking paper signed/numbered edition of 100
Size: image size: 9.5″ x 12.5″
Artist statement: A second edition of this linocut, printed on a Vandercook 3 letterpress. I was thinking about haloclines, the zones where layers of fresh and salt water meet and mix, and about what they mean in a world where all of the ice is melting away into the vast salt cavern of the ocean. Where are we on that boundary?”

Image description: This image is comprised of many lines and shows a scene in the ocean. There are many clouds and sunrise coming from behind the clouds and it looks like a nuclear bomb cloud or mushroom cloud is over the ocean. You can see deep below the ocean. Above and below the waterline is a mirror image. There is the cloud and birds on top and below is, the impact of the bomb below sharks swimming on the outer edges.
