Luminations are abstract compositions that transition from ambiguity to form as my eye-brain searches something recognizable. My Lumen Prints play with elements of pareidolia, the phenomenon of rendering small, ambiguous artifacts that engage my viewers on a primal level to look again, recognize a familiar form and make their own meaning from ambiguity. In a larger sense, my work is a poet’s inquiry into the nature of permanence and impermanence. The anthropocene epoch raises questions about what we are seeing, the need to continually look again at the human impact on the ecosystem and the nature of our own impermanence. In developing of this series, the question, “What remains?” is always in the forefront of my thoughts.
