statement
My work literally depicts plants, fungi, and sometimes birds, but more figuratively explores our entangled dependence on an ever-changing environment as the desire to shape the natural world yields increasingly chaotic results. With various media, including the cyanotype process, paint, and an adaptation of the mushroom spore print, I create biomorphic abstractions on paper. Spore print monoprints and cyanotypes rely on the elements; organic materials influence my process as they act as both subject and medium. In whatever form the work takes, I’m interested in the familiarity and strangeness in cycles of growth and regeneration.
