Three pastry wheels are framed against a background of sheet latex which has been cast from an ornate brass table leg, rescued from a Brooklyn skip. Between the pastry wheels are tiny labels with photographic portraits. The insides of the deep box frame are mirrored.
The title, Imprint, makes reference to the idea of genetic imprinting and how individual identity is established.
