This series of work began with a handful of texts and images from the history of science: Galileo's experiments in physics, Captain James Cook's observations of the Transit of Venus, and various documents from the U.S. Geological Survey. I have layered these stories with my own, re-presenting and even re-enacting them in order to understand them on a more personal and direct level. This work could be seen as a desperate attempt to find hope, not in the rational certainty of science, but in its intuitive and transformative capacities.

I begin with a simple shift in the language of science, to reveal it for what it truly is: a poetry of intimacy, of falling bodies and celestial visions passing before the eyes of history.
