This poster highlights a MacArthur Fellow Winner of 2012, geochemist Terry Plank. She studies plate tectonics at subduction zones, relating the chemical and physical forces with volcanic activity. The colors used reflect magma and rock found deep in the earth. The interweaving type signifies the act of collision and subdued chaos. The poster's composition and cutouts form two “plates” beginning to collide to further show opposing forces at work.
