Un/Inhabited

Slow acts of noticing transform our lives from feeling uninhabitable to a feeling of belonging. The paintings in this collection are about the way a place can shift our understanding of home.

About the Collection

“There is no house like the house of belonging.“ -David Whyte

Slow acts of noticing transform our lives from feeling uninhabitable to a feeling of belonging. Walking or finding ways to access the world through our senses allows us to hold two opposites in our minds: The permanence we feel when we ground ourselves in nature and the impermanence of nature itself.

The water and woods depicted in this collection are from places that have shifted my understanding of home — from Shanghai to Southeast Asia to Lake Mendota itself. Un/Inhabited felt like a natural progression from my previous collection A Walk With Water while building more deeply into the ideas of reflection, grounding, and transformation.
