“Rhumb Line”

summer 2024 Brooklyn, NY

A rhumb line is a line across the surface of the earth that follows one compass heading. I am interested in how we cross the round and textured surface of the planet– and the impossibly direct path of the rhumb line. To me, it is like time: bisecting our lives into even slices, a tool to  organize an impossibly varied landscape.  

I use oil paint and printmaking techniques to develop dimensional, interlacing landscapes and charts. They reach out into space– using multiple surfaces to capture a path across the planet.
