My work explores the intersection of art, science, and history through investigating patches of wildness that survive within suburban and urban landscapes.  My explorations continue into the forests of British Columbia where I aim to teach myself how to see the diversity of the forest floor in the midst of an era where this knowledge has lost its priority but not its importance.  With an ongoing practice of collecting wild plant specimens, I am creating a digital herbarium documenting the life cycle of plants while learning about different aspects and uses of flora growing in Canada’s most biodiverse province.  Through learning about the role of plants in the ecosystem and the gifts they offer us, one becomes more conscious of the mutual connections of life and the importance of reciprocity between humans and the Earth.

Though I am not offering a monthly membership at the moment, I do plan on it in the future, so please sign up to my newsletter if you'd like to be notified when this happens.  Sign up here.
