Walking on leaves, looking up, not down to define place.   Yet underfoot, if one looks, ephemeral landscapes can be found. Here, the fallen wait to return to an earth which gave them life. Feet tread them in, rain washes them, wind remodels them, but they hang on, resisting their extinction.

Annually this vision appears and disappears, but the moment of glory, relating to place and season, becomes a memory for what was.  This set of work denotes place and memory, depicting the fallen leaves upon the wet and worn streets of humankind.
