Created during my recent artist residency at The Corridor Project by charcoal ‘frottage’ against the surface of a large moss-covered boulder. The initial marks were received more than created but as I worked, the forms began to echo bodily structures well known to me: pathways, cavities, rhythmic lines, microscopic fields.

I have been thinking deeply about landscape not as scenery, not as background, but as a living body. A matter that breathes, records, and carries memory. A surface with its own pulse.

For me, Earth’s Pulse (as I am calling this work) sits between body and terrain, between observation and touch. It is a field of marks, but also a field of attention. A reminder that the landscape is not passive. It holds us, records us, and shows us how closely we belong to it.
