Mapping the Surface

Statement

How can I represent something as immense and as ancient as a landscape on a surface that will fit in my studio? Instead of focusing on a dramatic vista, my work seeks you of your own places, your landscapes of the imagination. I arrange light-sensitized fabric and paper into landscapes reminiscent of the ridges and folds of rock formations or the turbulence of a river’s surface. These temporary topologies are made visible by exposure in sunlight, leaving behind a shadow site, a trace of the landscape-that-was.
