Lenticular prints consist of long, arrayed lenses placed on specially prepared images such that viewers see different images at different viewing angles, producing illusions of depth or simple frame animation in a two-dimensional image. It is a gimmick rarely used outside the museum store or the Hollywood movie poster.

But seen mid-process, the prints without lenses have a dreamlike quality of indeterminacy. The eye fails to resolve a single image in the incomplete lenticular. Instead, it is left flipping between each, neither, or some new image emerging from the vertical interference patterns.

Isn’t this how these prints should have always been? Broken? Breaking?
