"Davidson felt that this print expresses the way we perceive:an artist's depiction is an immediate reflection of what is seen, yet is altered as a result of the mind's interpretation of it. Two stylized faces, one a red reflection of the other, are enclosed within massive black formlines. T-shaped reliefs add depth."
