ParCells, included in the exhibition, Evocations ( Victoria, BC, 2022), is work based on a series of packages that evoke the beauty of a present world that might be sent to a future world . These, together, could relate to that which is swaddled, cradled, packaged for transit, enclosed or perhaps harboured within.
As Landscape based works, these explore both the artist's inner, relational, and/or physical environments, for it is both the internal and external that influence the human psyche.
