MYSTIC WATERS

​

I continue to explore my own relationship to water.  

During 2024 I was able to spend a few months working in a studio on Islais Creek. This urban waterfront was once San Francisco’s largest watershed and has a rich and vibrant history. The sheer beauty of the Bay and the diversity of it’s inhabitants holds a special place in my heart. Each day travelling across town to the studio gave me a strong sense of the fragility of life in this city as I encountered the busy goings and comings of the commuters, the homeless encampments dotted around and the natural spaces where one can find solitude and quietness. I feel as though this work is just the beginning of the series.​
