The present focus of my artistic practice is with remote events and how they may be elaborated to comment on enduring questions of the human condition. Often these are subtle events which would normally go unseen, or are not easily perceived. This process may be likened to a kind of amplification that permits a rare or cogent view, and in its use of technologies, permits these traffics of kinds to be made present in small machines which remember remote events.
