Statement    
 

These images are conveying how nature can survive in an urban setting.

Trees are projected on the steel girders, which play a major role on the landscape of any city.

The tree archival gelatine prints are from a series called “Tree Projections”

 

 
   
Statement of Artistic Process    
 

The processes of printmaking serve as a surface and vehicle to record marks that represent a moment in time and/or a thought process. Often the contemplation is not complete and reflects more simply an idea that is completed through the act of working through the process. There is not any concern for the logic or narrative, although many instances reveal an image relationship though the act of making a plate. Each composition is developed on or for the matrix, filing the space, which in turn serves the subject.
