Earl Biss lists himself as Crow-Chippewa, born in Washington state. Due to illness, he was unable to participate in high school sports, and he turned to painting, his passion since age three. In his experimental lithograph, “Mirror Pass,” instead of placed separately and apart, the figures are mirror images of each other inside a larger composition. The effect is Rorschach-like, in that the traditional distinction between foreground and background has been subdued and reduced in relevance.
