The Luminous Margin, 2016 - Present

This series began with daily walks with my two young children when I was a stay-at-home mom. Because my children were small, we spent a lot of time in close proximity to the ground. I began to collect and organize the objects and debris in our immediate environment - particularly at the shoreline margin between the land and the sea. In the studio, I created simple still lives, often adding glimmering bits, and always conflating scale to suggest a broader experience of that place.

I am interested in the tension between the momentary and the eternal as we experience it in the landscape. I view these images as a playful meditation on this particular place and time, and an observation of the ceaseless reverberation between the smaller details, and the infinite whole.

“…all things are one thing and one thing are all things —plankton, a shimmering phosphorescence on the sea and the spinning planets and an expanding universe, all bound together by the elastic string of time. It is advisable to look from the tide pool to the stars and then back to the tide pool again.”
