against, Floridas

2023-ongoing

I struck against, you know, unbelievable Floridas
Mingling with flowers panthers' eyes and human

skin!
-Arthur Rimbaud, “The Drunken Boat”, trans. Wallace Fowlie

This series stages a subjective visual ecology of Florida, using carefully composed images to speak to overlapping scales and beings, entwined but separate. Images which re-form landscape as a found assemblage, made while walking the urban and suburban landscape of west Florida, are combined with lottery tickets discarded on the street.
