The work in the '20XX Series' focuses on the paradox of digital representations of the real, using nature and materiality as the sites of realities. Exploring a shifting anthropocentrism, where humans might have to reposition themselves as no longer being at the centre, where materials have their own agency and digital
worlds warp our sense of landscape.
The imagery is found and collected over time. During the editing process, the material gathered is obscured and manipulated through processes of layering and digital rendering.
The final works are vessels containing time and space, they are open narratives, as there is no beginnings and no ends.
