Digital photo composites, various sizes, 2018-present.
This on-going series explores place and the multi-species intimacies formed through decades of walking through, and living amongst, various locations in Marin County (USA, SF Bay Area). As an avid walker and hiker, I have spent hours in these places I not only call home, but count as kin. Rather than simply creating single-shot landscape prints of each place, I carefully composite layers of images (upwards of 50 for each image) of the same location—using a variety of macro/micro shots of the layers of inhabitants (flora and fauna), rock formations, textures, waterways, etc. Tenderly compiled, each image is a portrait of place—revealing the intricate assemblages of live within a given space/place.
