Ships in a Crate
Several years ago a tree blew over in my yard during a fall storm. As I was clearing away the fallen tree I noticed some similarities between the root systems and the human circulatory system. The roots and branches looked just like the veins and capillaries in our own bodies! With this piece I hope to show how nature is IN us, not something outside of us. This piece was created by layering hundreds of cut images between multiple sheets of thinly applied resin. The final image is a 3-Dimensional collage. The art is mounted on cradled wood panel so no framing is necessary. It is ready to hang!

Using hundreds of carefully curated cuttings, I seek to create collages that speak to the inter-connectivity between humans and their environment. Each piece consists of intricately constructed human figures made of images of flora and fauna, layered between multiple sheets of resin to create three-dimensional forms. My earliest memories consist of my childhood in Southeast Alaska and the local Native American creation myths of shape-shifting entities that could be animal, plant, or human at will. After years of studying and then teaching figurative painting in the states and abroad, I returned to the Pacific Northwest and my love of nature and the stories of my youth were reignited. Armed with my anatomical studies, I began piecing together my own mythical creatures, both human and plant, wed by the repetition of organic patterns and structures. My work explores humanity's relationship to nature, the repetition of organic forms, patterns, and structures that reoccur in the world around us as well as the world within us. I want to show the likenesses between the natural world and human anatomy: sticks as arteries, root systems as veins and capillaries, the knots and joints in wood as the knuckles, joints, and phalanges in our hands and feet. On a deeper level, I hope to illustrate through these similarities humanity's inter-relatedness and dependence on the natural world.
