Moire
These extended-frame images explore the luminosity and complexity of marshes. At times the pictures seem like drawings made up of haphazard lines of reeds, or like painterly renditions of a pond's depths.
A blot of sun is mirrored on the water's surface. A broken stalk lies akimbo. The lush green of algae forms a mottled screen. When these layers overlap and interfere with each other, they are reminiscent of a geometrical moiré pattern.
The images suggest stillness, contemplation, much like Japanese screens.
