Monumental nature.

Inspired by a recent visit to Kakadu National Park, impressed by the tiny homes of the tiny pest, termites, I took photographs, and made abstract drawings, of these forms. The series of single and multi-woodblock prints, render these natural sculptures flat. Using bright and intense inks, the woodcuts draw attention to these amazing forms and all that nature puts out! With an Australian twist, the idiom as a metaphor for overreacting talks to our need to better understand and respect nature. Making something more than it is, we often misunderstand nature and the way of things when we make mountains out of termite mounds.
