Land [ab]Use

This is a current series I am working on. [PREVIEW]

Native grasses form the backdrop or canvas to my work. By literally cutting away from the landscape I create a void in composition which questions the very issue of land use. These pseudo silhouettes formed act as both an avoidance of the subject while also interrupting the overall viewing experience. The viewer is then forced to leave the work experiencing a sense of loss and discontent.

Constructed Landscapes

Romantic landscapes form the backdrop or canvas to my work. By taking the photographic and juxtaposing it with illustrative, I create a confluence of the real and the imaginary. This juxtaposition invites the viewer to enter the work in a manner that they may not otherwise do so. Thus a notion of landscape is explored that does not rest on the familiar sublime, rather its constructed nature is revealed.
