Artist Statement

Maps and telescopes are fascinating tools that help explain reality. However, when the hands of an explorer of imagination hold those tools the reality may be transformed into pure fiction. I am interested in creating locations where the clash of real and fantasy coexist. I use the term Lost Geography to describes a specific momentary memory of a place, which only resides in one's soul. The moment shown may be one of great beauty, enticing you to move closer, or may be a moment of terror causing you to run in fear for your life.
