Biography

My work can best be defined as Conceptual Land Art. I am interested in spaces, both physical and psychological and how the two relate to one another. I create site-specific projects in wide-open and extremely remote landscapes, where severance from civilization creates distance from the “real” world. My projects exist only for a few hours or days at a time, before they are disassembled, returning the landscape to its original condition. I document the works through photography, video and text. Because of my close connection to nature and the responsibility I feel towards the planet, several of my installations address environmental concerns. As a result, I have begun to pay more and more attention to the materials I use, often employing the elements around me or my own body as source material. I collect or borrow from nature occasionally introducing man- or machine-made materials as reminders of human civilization.
