These works explore a desire to experience and comprehend place in a different way, and attempt to acknowledge the fantasies projected upon landscape that often accompany this desire. The sites for these explorations cross a broad distance, leaping from the homesteaded wilderness of the Matanuska-Susitna River Valley of Alaska to the forested state parks of Southern New England, yet their translation into drawing removes much of the specificity of place. This absence speaks of the gap between experience and memory, reality and fantasy, the known and the unknown.
