Abstract
Two photographs, audio, an embroidered textile, and a series of photograms to form a multi-media installation that records my intensive study of a small stand of trees located in Southern Manitoba. Each artwork denotes an individualised materiality and associated process that present a different interpretation of this prairie grove. The photographs and audio document the sights and sounds that I perceived on-site at the grove, while the embroidery and photograms depict my ruminative sewing process as I attempt to translate my experience of that place. When viewed together, the artworks form various complementary and an evolving depiction that allude to my reflections as I analyse my relationship with the grove while simultaneously commenting on how I perceive, record, remember and interact with this grove and the greater Canadian landscape.
