The segments of images in these pieces were selected from a box of failures to be torn-up or thrown into a fire. But being the recycler I am, I couldn’t let go of the parts I liked, and began to cutout fragments, transforming what was ‘trash’ into curated compositions. Moments across the surface of the grids lodge connections, slowing the viewer’s gaze to take in the forms which tell stories through traces, objects, and new visual connections.
