Elemental Forms: Landscapes Rearticulated

Taking the preceding series ('Elemental Forms: Landscapes') to a higher plane of abstraction, 'Elemental Forms: Landscapes Rearticulated' questions the role of social conditioning on our perception of reality, identity, and what we value by reinterpreting forms found in the landscape. I am particularly interested in meaning and the potential for generating new meaning when the observed manifestation or phenomenon is reconceived as an idea (is encountered without the baggage of learned references and definitions). How would we perceive a mountain, for example, if we encountered it for the first time; if we didn’t know its name? By arranging the sinuous, organic lines of the landscape into new compositions, I invite the viewer to form new associations and to envision and claim different possibilities.
