My recent work ponders time in at least three ways: the human scale of time as in the scale of a lifetime, the historic and prehistoric scales of time (which include geological and cosmic time), and the time it takes to make something.

I process time—the prehistoric, the historic and the recent—with a sobering sense of perspective. I gravitate to manually and slowly composed artworks because in light of this perspective the manual is not really that slow.
