Cyanotype with flocked screenprint includes blurred leaf image and handwriting.
Artist Statement: "How well do we know the people around us? is it possible to get to know someone who is no longer physically part of this world? My artwork is an investigation in how we put the pieces together, assemble the evidence of others and combine it with our individual or collective memories to create the whole. I work with processes of photograph and sculpture to examine physical evidence and materials of domestic settings as a metaphor for peeling back layers of narrative and then reassembling them in order to understand individuals.
We all have someone close to us that we only know partially. Who are they and how can we deepen our relationship with them? Archeologists and Anthropologists have investigated human stories for ages using the remains of settlements, trying to gain insights and knowledge about the past. My work is an intimate, personal, archeological exercise. I investigate and work to understand what is real and what is imagined by combining various layers together to gain a deeper understanding of those who have already passed, those currently around me and myself."Artwork Details
