'StrataTella'‘StrataTella’ is a three-color reduction woodcut that centers on the horizontal layers of glacial elements melting into the sea.The melt travels downward carving crevices into solid ice. As it re-freezes the melted carved area solidifies. This process creates a varied zigzag checkered pattern. Melting ice has created a deep cavern and its depth is portrayed through dark layers of ink against white speckled droplets of melted ice water. Layers of deposited ice and sediment seem to slowly collapse. In the distance, the landscape once covered by glacial ice reveals sediment layers deposited by drifting ice. Sky, land, ice, and sea collectively stack themselves into a relationship of color, pattern, formation, and causality.
'Glase Waves'‘Glace Waves’ is a four-color reduction woodcut exploring the textural and tonal varieties of glacier ice.When ice forms at the molecular level it creates a hexagonal bond of a lattice type arrangement. Air, dust, and elements of the atmosphere are trapped depending upon how quickly the water freezes. The texture of ice also plays a role in how it reflects, absorbs and refracts light. This is why in some of my icescapes ice can appear white, gray, yellowish, pinkish, green, or blue.
'Calving'‘Calving’ is a four-color reduction woodcut named after the event where glacial mass crashes into seawater, calving.The composition is on a tilted axis altering the perspective of the viewer, with a shifting narrative of shape and color.Positive and negative spaces collaborate to create ice, waves, and swells from a calving event- leaving behind its former landmass in the distance.
