2020
graphite on paper
14" x 11"

About the Work:

This drawing is part of a series examining the complex relationship between humanity and nature through abandoned stone structures. It depicts a spring house in Wissahickon Valley Park, an artifact of water-powered industry along the Wissahickon Creek in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Portions of this drawing were used in the installation piece Reclamation, which I created with Dana Scott and exhibited at the Da Vinci Art Alliance in September 2020.
