This work is about the relationship between civilization and nature, reclamation by nature, and the way life leaves imprints that can be reconstructed and interpreted in our imagination. Much of the subject matter lives in an imaginary, sightly magical realm that exists in the small patches of wild growth that precariously exist between developments, cities, and roads. Scenes from these hidden glens and backyards are depicted in print. Concrete fossils of material and figures from those real natural spaces act as evidence of the secret lives imagined in the prints. The prints are extrapolations of the evidence frozen in the fossils.
