Maps figure prominently in my work and when I first started sharing them, I came to realize their unifying effect. In front of a map, we share stories about where we've been and with whom we went. They were once hand-drawn works of art fueling a sense of adventure, but in modern times our interaction with them is reduced to Siri telling us to turn left in 100 metres. Through precision, relief, and light and shadow my aim is to reawaken our wonder for the places we know and love, and those we may have yet to explore.

In Gulf Islands, I've layered cotton watercolour paper to represent 20m increments. Shown on this map are Salt Spring, the Penders, Prevost, Saturna, and Mayne along with the Duncan and Maple Bay area of Vancouver Island.
