Slow Drift explores landscapes connected to legacies of enslavement, land modification and development that have shaped the environmental history and collective memory of Maryland and Virginia. Using photography, alternative processes and sound, the work unearths histories in suburban spaces and rural sites that were former tobacco plantations in Montgomery, Howard, Baltimore County, Queen Anne and Kent Counties. The work explores environmental damage, the violence of suburban development and the possibilities for new relationships and ideas of how we relate to American land and climate change. The work has been mademade using non-lens processes, archives, and large format photography.  Each image traverses history through large format photographs, non-lens processes, medium format photography, and archives.

This installation was performed with members of Raw Silk. Made from a 100-foot roll of 16mm film shot in the Walters Art museum, the objects seen in the film were illuminated with conservation-appropriate lighting. The footage maps archaeological eras through chronological and proportional 16mm footage -- each frame of the film represents approximately 1.6 years. The emulsion was then subjected to processes like bleaching, burying, soaking and scratching inspired by technological, geographic or geological events associated with archaeological periods and eras dating back to 4500 BCE (the age of the oldest object documented in the film.)

A short documentary about places and traces -- abstracted phone booths become increasingly legible as the catalog of information about a father and son grows. This piece asks us to consider the nature of the artifacts we leave behind, particularly audio voicemails, a digital artifact, recorded and performed, with expectation of being quickly deleted.  (Camera/Editor/Director)
