Abstract

Excerpt from artist's statement: My work is a hybrid between landscape and environment. In one sense, it has evolved right out of the Romantic tradition following Goethe’s claim that the landscape painter should pay greater attention to the specifics of the natural world. Although I am not a painter, the formalist, aesthetic part of me has focused on knowing the dynamic effects of landscape so that I can better understand and represent global environments. This includes the documentation of human agency both overhead and underfoot.
