Artist Statement
What happens when the natural world begins to disappear due to climate change and natural disaster? This work is focused around the simulation of nature, often alongside the piece of nature itself–moss is surrounded by stitch work meant to imitate the moss itself. Created with a variety of fibers, each piece is a representation of a landscape or piece of the natural world, hoping to preserve what remains.
