MAGICAS focuses on the vocabulary of magic, illusion and conjuration. Utilizing audience interaction, this installation recreates itself over time to reveal its true meaning. MAGICAS, employing age-old invisible ink techniques modified for modern hand-printing techniques, is accompanied by Bag O'Tricks, a set of limited-edition hand-created multiples allowing the viewer to design and present their own magic acts.

Editioned prints in this body of work include: Bag O'Tricks, Trick/Treat and Prestidigitation Series. These prints combine word play with handmade packaging, providing appealing magic for the everyday consumer of art. Selections from this body of work exhibited at the following:
