About the Artwork

Upon rocks forged when life was in its most primitive form, I observe dawn from shadows which retain the night’s chill. In the presence of such ancient formations, I am met with a humbling insignificance; personal tribulations recede against the vastness of deep time. A Humbling Insignificance explores a unity between the landscape’s physical form and my perception of place, shaped through embodied engagement; traversing terrain, enduring conditions, and reflecting on geological and anthropic histories. Expressive yet composed marks render the landscape’s rugged poetics, while an interplay of mediums distinguishes solid and atmospheric forms, allowing each its own resonance.
