Wave Finding
Ongoing Wave Finding is a series of stone sculptures, each a vessel of memory, each asking for a reciprocal act of remembrance. The stone in each piece carries its own story, a history of being cast off, left behind, deemed waste in the aftermath of construction and repair. Reclaimed, they find new purpose. Their patterns and shapes are drawn from meteorology and hydrography maps, maps that fix us in place, help us understand our surroundings, capture a moment in time. Scientific maps, in particular, mark a world in motion, a fleeting record of tides, currents, and pressures. Here, the patterns themselves become anchors, offering the audience a way to locate themselves. Each piece is a quiet provocation, urging the viewer to consider our brief existence against the vastness of deep time. The stones have eyes; they have ears. They observe, they listen. They store. They still bear the shape of where we once were. ARTIFACT  INSTALLATION
