Approaching the Gulf

"Within the cosmos, my presence is negligible. Yet, there is something human about the need to reiterate one’s existence. Documents of who we are and where we are abound. Information and visual stimuli flood our days and overwhelm our senses. Technology provides a platform for storing images we feel compelled to capture but rarely revisit. The world spins and is subject to time and its inhabitants. In the narrow realm that is now, my work both utilizes and reacts to the inundation of technology as I gaze upon, record, and preserve invisible fragments of the changing world. I used NASA imagery of Hurricane Laura in the Gulf of Mexico. The piece combines the light of cities as seen from above with a hurricane paused in motion. Mostly completed in colored pencils on dark Pastelmat, the softness of the pencil creates a dreamy atmosphere void of the chaos about to ensue."
