Death Valley
Death Valley began as a personal diary and analog photographs of a road trip through the California desert and was developed into a series of drawings and texts.
The drawings are inspired by found photos of the Valley – from different time periods and taken by different artists, including, namely, Ansel Adams, as well as myself, collaged together – producing a magical-realism effect.
Death Valley was realized during The Wanderer Thematic Residency at the Banff Centre for the Arts and partially supported by the Cliff Lede Family Charitable Foundation. The work was exhibited in my studio at the end of the residency period.
