A large-scale digital photographic collage that can be printed as either an Archival Pigment print on paper (unframed) or a Dye Sublimation print on metal (framed).

In the Topographies works I have also used the grid as a point of departure. Here, the nature of these fluid constructions presents a discourse of contradictions- micro and macro, time and timelessness, and the containment of things that cannot be contained, movement that cannot be stilled. The grid lends geometry and so tends to "rationalize" or abstract what would otherwise be mainly pictorial. I am filling a vast expanse, a kind of landscape, without perspective.

 I refer to the idea of topography, a description or an analysis of a structured entity showing the relations among its components, as a format in which I can keep small details and still make a space that could go on and on, like the ocean itself. When we look at the world we assemble small views into a large idea like "the ocean.” We can't see it all at once; at least not the way we know it. My views construct the whole from its parts.
