My artistic practice begins in a compassionate generosity- a generosity that reminds me to honor the earth and tread lightly on her surface. I let the wind carry my dreams and return them to me, fulfilled and joyous. I see the process of art making as an act of reciprocity and evolution; I receive inspiration from the world and return it back, imbued with my own spirit of understanding. As evolution is the constant and grand process between all species and their environment, my practice is the underlying force of continual conversation between myself, our human societies, and the natural world.
My work is most concerned with strengthening our collective relationship to the land by fostering an intimate understanding of the ecological relationships that sustain us. I believe that nurturing relationships with the ecosystems one lives in can allow for transformative environmental care rooted in attentive knowing. Witnessing the immense and dynamic magic of ecological relationships calls us to reposition ourselves within the vast systems of the earth and to reconsider the roles we wish to maintain in nature and societies.
I explore biological sciences through an ethos of interconnection and beauty. I hope that in this approach people are moved to address ecological crises guided by wonder and collective care rather than from fear. I am driven by the ancient intelligence shared between mycelial networks and plants, the innate reciprocity of the beavers, the use of the sun, astral cues, and magnetic fields as tools for memory and guidance for species on migratory journeys. I create work that is informed by the structures, shapes, colors, and natural relationships I observe, and I strive for this cycle of close observation and creation to give way to a recognition and responsibility to species, biodiversity, and habitats.
Beauty is gifted in the meandering passing of clouds and graceful shapes of branches against the sky. Perfection only comes in moments, but I find it in abundance as wind dances across leaves, storms build with intensity and color and passion, and as golden light falls across a meadow of swaying grasses and fluttering insects. Art is my gift back to the world, my breath witness to the subtleties and shifts occurring amidst the eternal movement of the planets.
