Artist's Statement
My work has a long history of layering elements of the Natural World. Combining my biological drawings with inherited old family letters and photographs, the ongoing work has evolved to reflect broader aspects of Memory and History.
Now, the very process of making this work --dismantling the albums, cutting this stuff up, drawing directly on these photographs—oddly feels like ballast in these uncertain waters. The studio work feels safe, but the album pages are empty, the order is gone, and I am part of this history. This is the first time I’ve made work directly addressing my own mortality.
