My work revolves around themes of time, natural cycles and perception.
Most works begin by burying zinc plates for various lengths of time and in different locations in nature. The plates are collected and run through an etching press using inks and rice paper to record the impressions left by organic matter. Depending on what time and the elements have wrought, thin layers of color are built up evoking atmospheric presence and observed natural phenomenon.
Between waking and sleeping, day and night, or inhaling and exhaling- there is a liminal interval - a space of shifting proportions and dimensions. Forms are not fixed but emerging, hovering and dissolving and it is precisely this state that is most compelling to me.
