These paintings depict remote places in nature; they are joyful, magical and help me sort my own grief. I’ve returned to these precious spaces numerous times throughout my life, as did generations before me. In this new work I have been investigating ownership in experience not landscape- exploring my identity through nature. By returning to these spaces time and time again they hold more than just a collection of memories. The past experiences are informing my understanding of present. Time is in a state of flux. The land ungraspable and fleeting. There is a borderlessness wonder to these spaces and encounters. Moments from them are immersive, interwoven and always moving. The temporal landscape is the only one I keep and call my own.
