Weatherwork 2023. Thirty foot+ installation on snow. Click HERE for signed editioned prints

Earthworks, weatherworks, land art, snow auras, ash collages, ice installations, public art … ephemeral artworks lasting only hours, created in and destroyed by nature (reverse anthropocene.) Made with found weather: wind, snow, rain, ice, water…

Found branches and ice sculpture; drifted and glitched work on snow using found flora, tablecloths, and cardboard; harvested icicles; a frost painting, using breath, a bee hive, a song.

Ice crystals as discrete units like a pixels in a jpeg. Post-weather, these works only exist digitally and the hardcopy works have an ambigious perspectival depth.
(These works, done on a frozen snowy lakebed, eventually led to the
Shift/Drift series of paintings, which are large canvas and smaller works on paper done en plein air in various locations worldwide.)

Below are some examples from the year. More are available.
