By engaging with painting on one hand and cartography on the other, I establish connections between scientific discovery and artistic exploration in my practice. I use references to images and imagery outside of art to relocate painting to places in the world. I explore boundaries  between cartography and painting, between schematic ground plans and mimetic representations of a scene, trying to blur these in a new organizing view.
