Episode 01: TIME
The first of three video curator-led tours by Gallery curator Adrianne Fast, and Kate Bradford, featuring photography by the artist, and SITE Photography.
This video focuses on a series of photographic works, Super Saturates, that explore ideas of time: “time disappears at a quantum level—all time exists all the time”; “a remembrance of the future, and an anticipation of the past”.

Episode 02: NATURE
The second of three video curator-led tours by Gallery curator Adrianne Fast, and Kate Bradford, featuring photography by the artist, and SITE Photography.
This video focuses on a series of shadow, and light-centric works, Familiar Strangers, Sham–Real Shadows, and The 24 Intervals, that explore ideas of nature, solastalgia, design, and art. “Morris would’ve argued that human design needs to be combined with nature, that those two things need to be intertwined”; “shadows are an echo of a real object, in the same way, a designed representation of nature is a kind of echo of nature itself.”

Episode 03: GRIEF
The third of three video curator-led tours by Gallery curator Adrianne Fast, and Kate Bradford, featuring photography by the artist, and SITE Photography.
This video focuses on a series scultptural works—The Relics, and Shored Lines—as well as text works —a salve for grief—that explore ideas of grief: “although these works present a future that is dark, and more dark”; “seems to extend forever into an indeterminate space…and infinite time”; “embodying an anxiety of the present moment”; “replaced actual nature with plastic replicas of it”; “reminding us that grief is never static—it is always something lived with, and through over time”
