Works in Progress…

I typically work with multiple processes and ideas simultaneously. Most of my current works have not been published or exhibited yet, but here’s a little sneak peek into what I’m working on recently. Schedule a studio visit to see works in progress and chat deeply about all things art, environment, and life.

I feel Anticipatory Grief…

I’ve been feeling a lot of sadness thinking about what would happen to my sacred Hemlock Forest if the invasive Hemlock Whoolly Adelgid invades. This project focuses on making images that will help me remember the trees and the space after they’re gone, using discontinued FP100C film. There is a deep correlation here between process and subject, as this film is discontinued.

I’ve been hanging out in the marsh at night!

Long hours in the pitch black under the milky way have allowed me to experience one of our most fragile and important ecosystems in a new light, exploring the subject with photo materiality. I am SO EXCITED about this process and the images I’m creating.

I’m angry about deforestation for development in my area!

Using cyanotype and ink, digital photography, film, and more I’ve been exploring habitat loss and questioning how humans are capable of flattening forests for condos, strip malls, etc. I’m noticing that people care less and less about the environment. And I’m funneling my rage into art.

Capturing the sun, day by day.

Pinhole photography is never far from the forefront of my mind and aesthetic inquiries. This is my most calculated project yet, and the results are fantastic!

Working Title: “I Contain Multitudes”

I’m starting a series of silver gelatin prints that explore the embodiment of generational memories. This is a work in progress and just the beginning!
