My work explores perception as an active process, using the landscape of Georgian Bay as both subject and catalyst. Waves and skies are not presented as static scenes but as unstable, shifting images that resist capture. As in nature, where clouds and water continually change, the visual field in these works slips away just as it seems to be grasped, reminding us that seeing is never complete.
In this series, photographs of water waves are transformed into vertical line patterns, interlaced with multiple skies. Depending on focus, viewers may perceive the surface of water, or one of two skies, but never all at once. The work emphasizes the instability of perception, drawing attention to the way vision alternates and excludes, foregrounding the role of the mind in constructing what is seen.
