This series visits the uneasy edges of industry, ethics, the landscape, and how they intersect at a specific kind of location: Superfund Sites.

At one time, industry at the 1000+ Superfund locations provided communities with jobs and tax revenue, while their demise left uncontained hazardous toxins that required government interventions to contain. They are complicated locations, which communities have rallied around and railed against—sites which have been altered for good and ill by our desires.

Redolent of photography, the images speak to an analytical, impartial recording of place, an "omniscient eye," an objective truth. Yet as drawings, the biased decisions of this record become markedly manifest. As with the sites themselves, one must examine beyond what is immediately apparent to understand the complicated layers comprising these drawings.

One can read the work as a physical record of place, an ideologically loaded statement, or beautiful composition. Each of them is true. They embody the location's topography, the "politics of progress," and the aesthetic relationship between texture, shape, and surface. What is seen is dependent on perception and where we choose to draw our lines.
