Lacerations and Arborglyphs (in progress)

Description

Dwelling with the remnants of arborglyphs—those enduring carvings on tree bark—and the silent lacerations left on the landscape, this work enters a world shaped by scars and stories. Marks on trees become living archives, each incision recording memory, longing, and human presence. By inhabiting these spaces where traces remain, the project invites viewers to listen for the echoes of those who passed before: lovers, lingerers, loiterers, and vandals—each leaving their own imprint and intention on the landscape. The wounds and inscriptions are at once poetic and sensory—generating new meaning as they persist, layer, and haunt the present with fragile histories. “Lacerations and Arborglyphs” becomes a site for continual revision and narrative renewal; every glance, every interpretation reimagines how fragmented memories endure, transform, and invite dialogue.
