Cyanoscape is a series of cyanotypes collaged in grid formation, exploring the elemental forces that shape both image and landscape: light, darkness, and water. A record of exposure and absence.
Each work in the series brings together fragments; botanical forms, textures, found materials, photographic transparencies composed into a modular grid. The grid imposes order on what is otherwise an unpredictable, almost alchemical process; within each cell, light and shadow negotiate their boundaries, and the unevenness of water during development leaves traces of motion, pooling, and erosion. The result sits between control and chance, structure and flux.
