Relics

"Relics" came from my own experience with mortality, and my interest in found art. In making these pictures, my hope is to symbolize the mark humans leave by showing our impermanent, yet lingering presence. Remnants of humanity are seen abandoned amidst the vast, empty and anonymous landscapes, yet often there is no direct link to a time or place. They demonstrate the similarities among humans revealing our ingenuity and folly by observing the detritus we leave behind. These forms exude an energy that transcends beyond the original intentions of the builders, becoming beautiful and monumental "earth works" in their own right.
