Artist Statement:

My work explores the relationship between humans, nature, and deep time through researched history. While using history as an anchor for context into our past, present, and future, my practice questions why our world, sublime in complexity, is the way it is. I collect stories, images, vegetation, and literal pieces of the earth and weave them together using print and papermaking, alternative photographic processes, book arts, and creative writing. These interdisciplinary processes create deeply researched, multi-textured, multi-layered experiences that engage sight, sound, smell, and touch. This work aims to pull viewers toward a sense of timelessness while pushing them to consider their place in the world.
