Artist's Statement
I make maps, schematic compositions, and other invented navigational guides based in formal models of natural phenomena. I am interested in examining conventions of landscape, exploration and discovery by pointing at features found in the built landscape. I then reposition these existing sites as theoretical or fictitious places through my own versions of explanatory displays, photographs, maps, postcards and other tourist ephemera. Rather than a dichotomy between built and un-built environments, I am interested in using the structure of one to examine the other--not unlike the Situationist tactic of using a map of one place to move through another. My projects respond to urban space and propose ways of interacting with it outside of ordinary pedestrian experiences.
