I am interested in the notion that the landscape art being made today is perhaps some of the last that will showcase images of a habitable earth. I’ve used delicately toned rice paper, antiquated frames, and photographs of natural environments to communicate the sorrow and reverence I feel when bearing witness to a beautiful yet dying planet. Being in nature is both revitalizing and haunting for me, much in the same way as recalling memories of departed loved ones. My work ultimately explores the melancholy passage of time, the irrefutable nature of climate change, and the fragile animacy of the environment.
