The organic forms in the sky are composed of original photographs collected over many years, which were selected because they depict natural phenomena. Some of them have faces, and these beings appear to be creating the shapes and depositing them where they see fit. They could be read as any number of invisible forces that shape societies, like the workings of nature, or supposed deities / supernatural occurrences.
The collage elements at the top contrast with the drawn geometric forms at the bottom, and the difference in materials may suggest that the two exist on separate metaphysical planes. The tiny figures on the shapes interact with each other and with the architecture in countless ways. Each individual interaction tells a unique story, and zooming out paints a picture of a complex society that is playing out in this imagined world. What is the relationship of these figures to the shapes on which they reside? Are they aware of the tumultuous sky?
I am interested in interrogating the concept of the landscape, crafting environments that tell stories. The imagination of the viewer is just as important as my own – each person will ask different questions and come to different conclusions.
