Land Rites

by Ian Welch

artist Reception:
Thursday, February 6, 2025
from 5:30 - 7:00 pm

Artist Statement:

“Land Rites is a meditation on the simultaneous and fleeting nature of rural landscapes and the callous tendency to denote human boundaries in natural spaces where there were none before. Drawing from the research of scientists like Susan Simard and Robin Wall Kimmerer and the eloquent writings found in Richard Powers’ book The Overstory, my current body of work utilizes imagery culled from hours of quiet investigation of both lush and decimated landscapes, primarily through the medium of printmaking.”
