“ I have forged pathways in and out of the woods. As a child, it often meant conveniently missing the school bus, allowing me to wander freely in, running low to the hedges so as not be seen and to arrive under the canopy, at once protected”

Materia

The process is the actuality….

a filmic piece expressing the sense of mutuality I feel, and endeavor to impart in the making of my work. Earth perhaps is seeing me here and I am seeing Earth in a system of life unfolding.  In the unfolding there are beginnings and endings, linked and layered. I am exploring the inter-being of art making with the creative forces of Earth; my self as  participant. This work was first Exhibited at Artplay gallery and studios in Asheville as part of a solo show named Materia. It was filmed in The Burren National Park and Saltee islands in Ireland and edited in my studio in the River Arts District Asheville NC. USA
