About The Artwork

Limited Edition Archival Pigment Prints on BFK Rives Paper. Over the course of five days, I walked the shorelines depicted on a survey map of the Orkney Islands in Scotland in order to explore first-hand the dynamism, depth, and infinite immeasurableness of the spaces depicted by what we perceive as a definitive, single line on the survey map. I documented details of the spaces using a magnifying glass and macro lens, then translated the macro-images into drawings using a digital pen. These individual drawings became the alphabet or vernacular to recreate the experiential map of each day’s walk. By replacing the Cartesian equations used in survey mapping with an experiential map vocabulary, the new map reveals the spirit of the Orkney shoreline at a particular moment in time.

My artworks critically and playfully challenge our relationship to the tug that exists between measurement and lived experience, the rational and the sensuous. Drawing from my current research in philosophy and aesthetics and nearly twenty years of professional experience in the fields of architecture and graphic design, I create artworks in multiple mediums from drawing, printmaking, photography, sculpture, and installation to public art commissions, interactive events, curating, and writing. Born in Buffalo, aged in Philadelphia, and seasoned in Australia, Scotland, and New York City, a curiosity and love of place has been a constant inspiration since childhood. What began as an artistic inquiry into the "tug" of place has grown into a broader examination of this tug in language, the feminine, time, and notions of truth. The artworks are often laced with a subtle humor and draw attention to the sense of wonderment in everyday life.
