I work with charcoal, graphite, stencils and erasure to create various size drawings that explore atomic and electronic light sources acting upon naturalistic scenes, as a way of playing out the physical tensions that exist in our ecosystem, at once organic and artificially constructed. I make imagined forests and landscapes to narrate the tenuous places between absence and presence, glare and shadow, stillness and motion, the everyday light-bound binaries that govern our lives and evoke our cosmologies. Deer, birds and trees serve as the main characters in these scenes and act as agents who reveal in tableaux-like space, relationships about causality, environmental dependence and temporality.
