Land Strands

Inspired by eroding, folding, clashing, and stirring of land.

These pieces may show internal sanctuaries, but they were crafted from a struggle to conceptualize, and pass time.

As someone with ADHD, time is a very slippery concept. I struggle to pass time without fidgeting, doing, or moving. In stillness, I can be paralyzed. The movement of my pen grounds me in the present moment without worrying about the next. Each one of these pieces has undergone a long period of time under my pen nib, documenting the passage of time. Just like how a seismograph records breathing land.
