After The Flood: Marks Left By Helene
In the aftermath of Hurricane Helene, I documented the damaged landscape while volunteering in our community’s cleanup. These abstract photographs, printed on delicate Japanese Asuka paper and traced with 24k gold leaf, reflect on grief and resilience. Influenced by Kintsugi and the concept of Tikkun Olam, my work explores the spaces between body, land, and spirit, where loss leaves marks, and repair becomes a sacred act. The original 20 x 16 inch prints are part of an evolving series that will culminate in an exhibition and book: an invitation to witness beauty within impermanence as we face an increasingly unstable climate.
