10989 Dunlop Road
10989 Dunlop Road is a series of 60+ paintings I made of one specific view in my mother's garden in kwekwenis (Lang Bay), British Columbia, Canada. In this series—collectively titled after the location’s address—I explore multiple iterations on a grouping of trees surrounding the entrance to the rural south-of-town property.
Lang Bay became a place of refuge during the pandemic when I left New York City to return to the west coast. This garden scene in particular emerged as a symbol of rebirth and of renewed spiritual grounding. Gardens are traditionally places associated with growth and care and have been represented throughout art history as spaces where the magical and divine dwell—something which is definitely true of this work.
