Over the past few years I have been interested in depicting a sense of my own garden. A garden is never just a moment in time, a mere view; it includes all the moments in shaping that garden — cutting, digging, hauling, hundreds of repetitive tasks. Every experience of making a garden resides in the hands. This idea of tactile memory is the catalyst for my recent work Epicritic Memories.
