San Francisco Bay salt, mixed media on panel, 8" x 8" x 2", Unframed

I began working with salt from the San Francisco Bay in 2013 to build a deeper knowledge of the San Francisco Bay Area. Salt illuminated the tides, drought, heat, wetland development, and housing along the Bay, leading me to think about the landscape through both geologic time and much shorter, human-centered processes. Ultimately, because salt is from the ocean, it connects us to the rest of the world and cosmic cycles. Many of the forms in my "Saltworks' series reference imagery of the moon. This artwork is a continuation of my saltworks series, that references intersecting circles, a shape that symbolizes the intersection of spiritual and physical worlds, but also is reminiscent of female forms.
