There is an intrinsic commitment to and reverence for our land. Working ultimately to change how we view and interact with our environment, walking, observing, and directly experiencing nature sparks a desire to capture, highlight, and interpret evanescent moments within our surroundings. An unfixed moment, a fleeting image or chance encounter along the way allows space for the interconnectedness between art and life to surface. Interference with nature pronounced or slight by way of interventions, photography, projected image, sound, text, and sculptural installations allow me to activate and archive transitory points in time.
