This series of work aims to look at the unseen or overlooked. Shadows and reflections on pavement after rain are one example of images that are around us but that we do not always see. Our choice to focus on one thing over another is fascinating to me. The question of how we choose where to look and what to look at is a focus of this work.

In the works ‘weather series’ Canadian weather maps are integrated into cloud formations. These formations show the highs, lows, and patterns of weather systems as well as explore the unseen elements at play in the sky. These works question how we experience our natural environments; how we hope to predict and understand the powers they hold.
