Description:
Lost Bearing explores the changing character of the New England coastline, where working waterfronts, navigation systems, and industrial structures gradually disappear beneath erosion, weather, and time. Rather than documenting a specific location, the work combines painting with salvaged maritime materials to create a landscape that feels both familiar and uncertain.
Layers of acrylic, texture, weathered surfaces, rust, and found objects are built into the composition so that the painting functions as both image and artifact. The embedded materials are not decorative additions; they serve as physical evidence of labor, navigation, and coastal life, carrying traces of the environments from which they came. The work reflects an ongoing interest in how places become archives, preserving the physical evidence of human activity long after their original purpose has faded.
