This is a work about the moment when the forces of nature are gathered, but not yet released. It is about the need for home and shelter, in tension with the need to go outdoors. It is about stillness and anticipation. It is about the unsettling closeness of beauty and danger. It is also about the algorithmic simulation of traditional media, like printmaking or ink drawing, and bridging the gap between two ages of art that often look like strangers to each other.
