“My works reference the material of antique papers and books, deconstructing paper and text, and using it in metaphorical ways.
In the Wanderlust Series, maps from geography books published in 1860's are cut and recombined. The carefully charted topographies, geographies, boundaries and coordinates are physically sliced, sewn, woven and layered - ultimately transformed and inviting new explorations. Layering the paper intuitively, responding to the existing cartographic renderings, allows for new territories to form. Combining the maps with antique wooden shoe forms and map pins, suggests a journey charted, imagined, or remembered. A unique perspective of mapping the world is depicted utilizing the antique materials.
In the geography books from the 1800's the observations of the world provides a record of our long held fascination and curiosity for the lands beyond. That drive to search for understanding continues to capture our imaginations and propel our explorations further.
