Elder Cedar. Oil on canvas. 57 x 47 inches. 2024.

 

This recent series of work explores how we create meaning through experiencing landscape.

When remembered, places once known become ungraspable.

The works display an unstable space, reminiscent of the fragility and intensity of memory. Colors shift and blur, dynamic marks build on the surface and dissipate, describing spaces that seem to exist as we know them, yet can change or vanish at a moment’s notice. Through painting, the “recreation” of such places is often fugitive and futile, a reminder of the dynamic relationship between our bodies, minds, and place.
