- Abstract
- I started out as a biologist at age 10. I would collect things outside, copy down pages and pages of field guide information into my own notebooks, take photos of all the wildflowers I would see in the national parks. Documentation was key: everything I saw on my family’s trip to Yellowstone had to be written down, photographed, and drawn. I was collecting, all the time. My honors project has been a continuation of this practice. My art combines observation (and with this, wonder), and the gathering and displaying of information. In this body of work, I am interested in the ecological address (the place and its influencing geology), the process of ecology, and the communication of scientific findings. I am interested in considering my own ecological research while creating work, but also drawing from systems of methodology and data presentation that are commonly used in ecology.
