Over the last several years my personal life has gone through major upheaval, full of changes I never anticipated, compounded by the pandemic and political chaos.  Like so many people finding themselves having to adapt to a new emotional landscape, I've striven to stay grounded and positive and not lose myself in the fray. With that as the subtext for this series of collages, I wanted to allow my subconscious to lead the way, with no destination in mind at the outset.  The result is somewhat mysterious landscapes, perhaps underwater, perhaps in another world.  They took on names of geological phenomenon, many of which take millennium to play out, which sometimes feels how long it's taking me to adjust to new circumstances.
