“The southern New Mexico area I’ve explored during my time at the Roswell Artist-in-Residence program has become, for me, a storied landscape. With chevrons of sandhill cranes, lightning of monsoon season, and stark, weathered buildings, my wanderings have registered a kind of synapse between the traces of human existence and the realm of natural phenomena.
Walking across the high plains of New Mexico, you come across things that have been left there. Used up and abandoned — things that seem to have some kind of story. Any purpose we impose on the landscape leaves a mark which can be overt, or it can faintly reveal a past narrative. These signs/signals inhabit our everyday world, where collectively they can take on the qualities of a dream or myth.”
