Strataform Paintings
The cliffs and strata along the Southern California coast inspired the inquiry these paintings are exploring. Eons of time and change now exposed and evolving in new ways. Layers of changing landscapes and climates as metaphors to the layers of our lives. Earth memories. Life memories. Collective memories.
These paintings trace both the endurance and vulnerability of the planet itself. The same forces that mark our inner lives—pressure, erosion, renewal—also shape the shifting ground we inhabit. Each surface becomes a quiet record of time, climate, and memory, held together for a moment before the next change begins.
