How To See And Read The Aura

The title of Kyla Mallett's series of screen prints How To See And Read The Aura comes from a found self-help book.  Mallett used UV-sensitive screen printing inks in her prints, which revealed more or less of the text depending on the changing UV exposure, hence mimicking the practice of aura reading.
