Artist Statement
Saboteur, 2014
Saboteur is one of a suite of 20 etching, woodcuts, lithographs and digital prints titled Suburban Terrorist that explore the topic of domestic terrorism through the lens of metaphor. Who the terrorists are is never quite clear. Is it suburban sprawl or is it nature? The rich surfaces of the prints and the disjointed images show two spheres colliding as each tries to claim the other’s realm.
