This mica infused resin artwork, was inspired by images of the Earth from satellite. In my series "Earthbound", I have been exploring naturally occurring and man-made geological features all over the planet. It is fascinating to me to see the beauty in the patterns, colors, and dynamics of the zones I have focused in on. Some, like this zone, are the remains from mining processes. I find it interesting to explore the visual elements of the space and also to research what happened here. In instances influenced by human activity, I'd like to bring awareness to the impacts of toxic practices, in hopes of inspiring ways to manage these processes more thoughtfully going forward. We only have one Mother Earth.
