This body of work explores the Earth through its layers and components—from the air above, to the surface, to what lies beneath. The atmosphere is represented through haze, mist, fog and sky. At the surface, the focus is on water, ice, and land configurations. Beneath the Earth’s crust, the work considers precious metals such as gold, silver, copper, and cobalt, as well as, Rare Earth Elements (REEs), which are essential to magnets and modern technology.
Together, these works explore the layered nature of our planet—what humans require to thrive and how we choose to divide, use, or preserve our shared resources.
Materials: sand, gravel, paint, moss, glitter, metal, plastic, stones on canvas or wood.
