About
Reconnect with waterways and place through paper art made from seaweed, plant fibers, and sediment. My art expresses the complexities of specific watersheds, rivers, shorelines, and bays—their psychologies, ecologies, industrialization, human histories, and material realities. Foraged site materials become textured paintings, expansive installations, analog prints, and organic sculptures.
