Partner artists Cat Crotchett and Jeanne Griffin independently adopted the same technique of reproduction and enlarging by focusing on one part of their partner ’ s piece and pushing that design further . Griffin created a larger version of an element in Crotchett ’ s Together and shifted the background colors to make that design “ pop ” in A Part . Crotchett responded to Griffin ’ s abstract landscape in Down From Above , based on an experience of hang gliding over the Pokhara Valley in Nepal , by imagining what could be hidden inside the valleys . The Space Between maintains Griffin ’ s color and shape to create a visual link .
