Rendered faithfully from old topo maps and photographic imagery with scale exaggerated for dramatic effect, these sculptures reference glamorization of Western landscapes and landforms of white settler colonialism established by f/64 photographers like Ed Weston and Ansel Adams.

Commodification of landscape reigns.
