Werkschau

“Werkschau” draws on a complex visual palate, influenced as much by nature’s elements in flux as man’s seeming disregard for them. The series includes aerial captures of California landscapes transformed by fire, drought and rising sea levels. Charred hillsides, active coastlines and rare salt evaporation ponds are at once evidence of environmental impact and at the same time create abstract renderings. Seemingly close-up captures create the look of a painting’s detail of what appears thickly layered, paint-cracked impasto.
