The Geoglyphs (2022-2024) juxtapose images of nature and civilization in narratives exploring themes of survival versus extinction. Images of mammals, birds, reptiles and insects are contrasted with symbols of the Anthropocene—factories, city skylines, signage, chemical formulas, etc. The designs are formed by pouring sand, rice flour or colored herbs into hand cut stencils arranged in patterns of radial symmetry. These ephemeral ground based images are inspired by indigenous traditions such as Indian kolam rice flour drawings drawn in front of households for good luck and blessing, as well as Tibetan and Navajo sand paintings which are temporary designs created for magical and healing purposes.  Since the geoglyphs last for only a few hours before dispersing to the elements they are reminders of the impermanent nature of life—metaphors for the fragile symbiotic relationship  of humans and animals and the threatened ecosystems  which they depend on for survival.
