Perception / Finding Ground

By capturing tactile impressions from nature through frottage techniques, the work traces the unseen threads that connect us to the world, drawing on concepts of plant-thinking that can reshape our understanding of reality.

Utilizing experimental processes including hot wax to excavate the ink from the magazine, this work reframes imagination as a vital process of attunement to relationships and the subtle forces shaping our lives. The light boxes capture layered paper traces, evoking a sense of presence, absence, and connection.
