These works obscure what they once revealed. A body of layered figuration and submerged narrative, born from a different series of works, but now distinct. What began as gesture and memory becomes transformed. A physical accumulation of material, emotion and residue.

Charred Japanese Honeysuckle - a highly invasive plant found throughout Appalachian Ohio, clipped from my backyard and burned at the site of a project we are designing with the land rather than against it. Cambium collected at a Fall Fungi Festival workshop in Athens, Ohio, originally intended for cordage. Both are now permanent mediums in my rotation.

As above, so below.

These are initial pieces in the ongoing SUBSUMED series. There are two more in the works, one of each spectrum (darklightdarklight).
