Around the winter solstice, I documented the interplay of sunlight and shadow upon cement slabs at a nearby site. The several hours spent (over a few days) on this activity created an immersive experience. Lines and shapes shifted on the cement as my body moved in relation to them. A spatial drawing emerged in real time altering how the site was perceived.

As this 3D drawing manifested, I documented the site from many angles and vantage points. The resulting digital images were then turned into drawings. The process of rendering the shadow interplay on paper became a way to meditate on what was seen and pinder what may happen next.

Works on paper were first made in sequence of the order they were shot, one frame at a time. Over a few weeks, the digital images were projected upon each other and traced to mirror the spatial drawing’s shadow movements. It called to mind Rovelli’s ideas about the quantum world, where “Time is not linear, but rather a web of interconnected moments, constantly folding back upon itself”. In this process, forms and the space overlapped and fragmented, creating a landscape of varied lines, shapes, and tones.
